Make either a standing or flat wristlet zipper pouch, or a modern drawstring bag in this engaging workshop. The complete kit is included in the class cost, with an option to purchase extra kits, including cushion covers, available at the studio.
Choose your background colour from beige, blue, or yarn-dyed black linen, and select embellishing patches from a collection of vintage and new Japanese cotton, silk, and linen fabrics to match or contrast your background.
Learn about the Japanese Sashiko stitching technique while embracing principles of up-cycling, respect for the discarded, and the slow stitching process, all aimed at fostering mindfulness and relaxation. The hand-stitching is beginner-friendly, but you will need a sewing machine and basic machine sewing skills to insert the zipper and finish the projects, with full instructions provided in your workshop notes. Refreshments and snacks will be served.
