About the Workshop

Join Becca and Amanda from Ewe & Ply in a short series of workshops exploring the absorbing and tranquil art of Sashiko stitching.

In this session you will be guided through the first few forms of sashiko stitching, and learn something of its origins and history as you sew.

This session will cover the fundamental techniques involved in Sashiko, from holding the needle and choosing your fabric and thread, to choosing your stitching path and marking out your pattern or working freehand. We aim to work through one Hitomezashi form - using straight lines that cross and overlap, and one Moyozashi form - curving lines that do not cross. 

Please Bring

Please bring swatches of a loose weave fabric to stitch onto, approximately 8" (20cm) square.

Linen, cotton or ramie fabrics work best. (Denim is not recommended at this stage.)

Needles and thread will be provided.
