Workshop | Sashiko & Visible mending

Learn the art of sashiko and visible mending in this workshop, where traditional Japanese techniques meet modern repair artistry. Sashiko, a beautiful and functional embroidery technique, is used to strengthen and embellish clothing and textiles, while visible mending encourages you to proudly showcase repairs instead of hiding them.

In this workshop, you’ll learn the basic stitches of sashiko and discover how to apply them to garments that deserve a second life. Bring along a worn-out pair of jeans, a sweater, a piece of fabric, or any other item that needs repair or embellishment. Not only will you learn how to sustainably mend your clothing, but you’ll also turn each repair into a piece of art.

Get inspired by the possibilities to refresh your wardrobe creatively and sustainably. Various templates are available for you to use on your garments, ensuring you leave with new skills and a unique, personalized piece of clothing!

Classes are provided in English and Dutch.

INCLUDED:
Yarns, templates, and material to practice, snacks, and of course tea and coffee.
