In this informal three-hour workshop, you will learn about the ancient Japanese arts of Boro (using fabric scraps to repair old items or create new ones) and Sashiko (an embroidery method based on a simple running stitch).  You will then use these techniques to make a purse or pouch, which you will stitch by hand.

The aim is to complete your item within the session. However, this is a relaxing, mindful way of stitching. If you don't finish in the two hours, you will leave with all the information and materials you need to do it at home.

This workshop is suitable for beginners, as well as more experienced stitchers.  The price includes tuition and all materials.
