Exploring versatile running stitches Learn the traditional arts of creative embellishing and mending! 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 2 types of stitching: Sashiko, which means “little stabs” in Japanese, and kantha, which translates to rags in Sanskrit. This workshop will teach the primary function of sashiko and kantha stitching which was: to mend and reuse old 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. On the first class we will create a sampler. On the second class, students will bring a piece of fabric or clothing they want to mend or decorate. This class is appropriate for ages 12 years and older.
