{"product_id":"intro-to-sashiko","title":"Intro to Sashiko","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn these classes, we will explore the ancient – and still popular – needle art of sashiko. Sashiko started out as crude mending, but soon developed into a complex and highly symbolic style of folk hand embroidery. It relies exclusively on the humble running stitch, making it accessible to beginning stitchers, while also offering a creative challenge to\u003cbr\u003eexperienced needle workers. The rhythmic, quiet stitching is perfect for stitching in community and can feel almost meditative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach 3-hour session will focus on one pattern. This time should allow everyone to complete small sample, suitable to frame, to use as a mending patch, or to turn into a coaster. Experienced stitchers will have time to experiment with different color and scale options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first three sessions are stand-alone, so that you can take any (or all) of them with no previous experience. The fourth will require experience with at least one sashiko pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSession 1 \u003c\/strong\u003e– Rice Flower\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSession 2\u003c\/strong\u003e – Persimmon Flower\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSession 3\u003c\/strong\u003e – Woven Tortoiseshell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSession 4\u003c\/strong\u003e –Sashiko for Visible Mending\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSession 5\u003c\/strong\u003e - Arrow Feather \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSession 6\u003c\/strong\u003e - \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eCoins\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you will need for the first 3 sessions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eAll supplies are available for purchase in the store.
