WORKSHOP: Create a Sashiko Embroidered Tea Towel - March 8
Date: Saturday March 8
Time: 12:00 - 4:00pm
Cost: $150 (Paid via Venmo or Paypal to @rachelharrietteb)
Hanafukin translates as “flower cloth”. It is an embroidered and embellished 100% cotton tea towel or kitchen cloth intended to be both beautiful and utilitarian.
Stitching lore teaches that hanafukin were stitched by mothers as reference to pass along Sashiko embroidery patterns to their daughters. Sashiko means “small stabs” and is a Japanese style of hand embroidery. With our cotton cloth as a canvas, we will use a simple running stitch to create a Sashiko pattern sampler of bold, geometric patterns and thematic floral stencil motifs. Participants will plan and layout designs, draw with circle templates to create patterns, employ “small stabs” to stitch geometric
Sashiko, and learn how to avoid or hide knots. All skill levels welcome!
All tools and materials provided. Please bring your good reading glasses!
Class kit includes; 14”x14” Japanese cotton Sarashi fabric, Olympus brand Sashiko needles, needle threader, skein of thread, circle templates, and pattern guide.
You’ll have access to all the necessary tools; grids, rulers, thimbles, stencils, templates, and colorful Sashiko threads.
NOTE: Spaces are limited, your place in the class is only fully confirmed once payment is confirmed. Please submit the workshop cost of $150 via Venmo or Paypal to @rachelharrietteb. You will receive a confirmation email once payment has been confirmed. All sales are final.
