We’ll begin the session with a brief historical overview to gain appreciation and perspective from sashiko’s humble origins as a folk craft. Instead of being a “sage on the stage,” Karen will be a “guide on the side” in this class for more experienced needleworkers who want to discuss, explore possibilities, plan, and create a unique project incorporating sashiko. Examples of such sashiko projects will be used as a springboard for ideas. Then, class members will each brainstorm, outline, and create a design/composition on paper.
Class members will keep in touch with Karen (remotely) regarding progress and share results at an in-person class to be scheduled later in the Fall of this year.
