Craft Happy Hour: Sashiko Coasters with Lizz Freeman

October 5

6PM - 8PM

Learn sashiko hand-mending techniques by making a set of unique cotton and felt coasters. All materials provided. 

Sashiko (literally translated 'little stabs') is a type of traditional Japanese embroidery or stitching originally used to mend clothes, but has become a distinctive decorative design. Historically, relatively cheaper white cotton thread was used on durable materials such as indigo-dyed blue cloth, and from that utilitarian space sashiko's distinctive appearance of white-on-blue embroidery was born.
