Exploring versatile running stitches December 15, from 9:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. Just in time for the holidays, come and create a beautiful purse that can be used as a gift or as a soft pouch for jewelry. We will be using hand-dyed bamboo and wool felt as our canvas. The technique of decorating a fabric surface with running stitches can be found in many cultures and in the scope of this class we’ll focus on two types of stitching: Sashiko, which means “little stabs” in Japanese, and Kantha, which translates to “rags” in Sanskrit. The primary and traditional function of the stitching was: to mend and reuse old but treasured fabric, to gather layers of fabric which then provided warmth and insulation, and/or strengthen the fabric for heavy usage. However, the decorative aspect of this timeless practice became just as important and valued, and its rich “vocabulary” translates into endless pattern variations. This class is appropriate for ages 10+years and older. All materials included. • Military and sibling discounts • Scholarships available • Homeschool funds accepted • If this class is full, join the Interest List. • If you would like to be notified of future offerings, join the Interest List to be notified when new dates or spaces are available.
