Make and Take Workshop: Wool Embroidery/Applique and Sashiko

Leave the sewing machines at home and join us for a day of slow stitching.  This will be a day of learning or improving a couple of hand sewing projects.



The morning will be devoted to Wool Embroidery and Applique.  Bonnie will demonstrate several embroidery stitches: back stitch, split stitch, stem stitch, daisy chain, etc. These stitches can be used to add texture and design elements to your next quilt project. 

A kit will be provided for each student to make the small, fun artwork piece. 


Patti will demonstrate the Moyozashi style of sashiko which uses long lines of running stitches to create intricate patterns. In this traditional Japanese artform, your stitches do not touch or intersect. She will provide a basic overview of history, samples, and resources, and demonstrate the basic running stitch technique.

Sashiko Resources

A kit with the Tobi Asa No Ha design will be provided for each student to continue learning on their own.

You will only need to bring hand sewing items:

  • Scissors,
  • Thread Catcher,
  • Thimble (Optional)
  • Lighting and/or magnification (Optional)
  • Lunch

Join us for some fun and relaxing hand sewing.

If you are signed up for this workshop and cannot attend on the new date, please Joyce Dimock.
