Fat-Stitch, Hand-Quilting & Sashiko
Slow down, stitch by stitch, and discover the beauty of hand-quilting in this welcoming two-hour workshop exploring Fat-Stitch quilting and Sashiko embroidery. Using fabric scraps, simple stitching techniques, and layers of texture and pattern, participants will create a one-of-a-kind potholder that is both practical and unique.
Inspired by the long traditions of quilting, patchwork, and the Japanese mending & embroidery practice known as Sashiko, this workshop invites participants to explore how humble materials can be transformed through thoughtful making. Learn foundational hand-stitching techniques, experiment with pattern and composition, and embrace the meditative rhythm of sewing by hand.
Beginners are absolutely welcome — no previous sewing or quilting experience is needed. Bring along your favourite fabric scraps to incorporate into your piece, or choose from a selection of provided materials. All tools and supplies are included.
Whether you’re interested in textiles, sustainable making, slow craft practices, or simply spending a creative afternoon stitching alongside others, this workshop offers a fun, relaxed, and inspiring introduction to the world of hand-quilting and Sashiko.
