Private Embroidery or Sashiko (Beginner)

In this class, you will explore a variety of essential embroidery stitches - chain stitch, blanket stitch, seed stitch, French knots, and more. You'll also learn which fabrics work best for embroidery, how to use beeswax to get prettier stitches, and how and when to use knots like a pro.

Or learn Sashiko, the beautiful Japanese art of needlework used to visibly mend or reinforce clothing, mend fabric, reinforce areas of high wear, or join multiple layers of fabric for warmer or more structured garments. This practice stems from the concept of Wabi-Sabi, which embraces beauty in impermanence and imperfection.
