QHA004FriPM - Sashiko: Apply Hitomezashi to Our Ordinary

Hitomezashi is a popular style of Sashiko to apply our Ordinary Stitching & Fashion. This workshop introduces a standard process of enjoying Hitomezashi. Starting with preparing the grid on the fabric and continuing with creating the Hitomezashi pattern and stitching it, students will also learn how to apply their stitched pattern to a quilt or garment. Students will learn how creative we can be while appreciating the cultural significance of Sashiko by approaching both visible & invisible mending while maximizing the joy of Hitomezashi. Experience in Sashiko: Core & Essence will be a great help to maximize this workshop, but not required.

Unlike the other Sashiko workshop “Core & Essence” Atsushi offers, this workshop does NOT include a strict learning & stitching practice. A participant can use any thread & tools that they want to use. You may purchase a package of materials prepared, but it is not required to participate in this workshop.

Please note this workshop does overlap some of the contents of “Introduction to Japanese Sashiko Stitching” Atsushi offers on Domestika.
