Introduction course including beginner's lesson

In recent years, it has been easy to obtain materials for sashiko, such as already prepared stitching fabrics or already drawn patterns. However, this solution makes it difficult to do sashiko stitches on the fabric or material of your choice, in the size and the pattern you want.

The goal of these courses is that you will eventually be able to sashiko design and stitch freely, in any position, with any motif, in any size and realise your sashiko design exactly as you imagined it.

Enjoy a moment of sashiko with matcha or Japanese tea from kyoto!
