Glen Aplin Memorial Hall Sashiko Stitching Workshop

Discover the beauty of slow stitching with Japan’s timeless textile art.

Step into the calming rhythm of Sashiko, a traditional Japanese embroidery technique known for its elegant geometric patterns and meaningful simplicity. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the history and philosophy behind Sashiko while practicing foundational stitches used to mend, embellish, and create stunning textile designs.

Guided by a skilled instructor, you’ll explore how to mark and stitch classic patterns, work with authentic Sashiko thread and needles, and create your own sampler or start a small piece—perfect for framing, patching denim, or incorporating into future textile projects.

Kit and tuition included.  No experience necessary—just a love for craftsmanship and thoughtful detail.
