It’s a chance to learn or refine your needle skills from quilter and Mending Club founder Nanci Feeney. For the uninitiated, Sashiko is a mindful Japanese mending craft. The name literally means “little stabs”, and is a visible form of decorative stitching that developed in Japan in the 1600s. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn designing the market bag, Nanci adapted traditional Sashiko patterns. One covers the sturdy straps and the handy little pen pocket attached to the bag, with a second pattern cascading down the front. A single large Sashiko patch, which is layered on the front, sports another pattern. To add some extra pizzaz, Nanci has added a multi-colored ribbon and fabric tassel. It’s fun and quick to make, and she’ll show you how to do it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNanci begins class with an introduction to the basics of Sashiko, from a brief history to supplies and various applications. She then provides hands-on instruction that gets you stitching in no time. In addition, she demonstrates four different pattern transfer techniques and provides tips on how to attach patches and custom pockets to your projects. You’ll leave class with all of the supplies necessary to complete the market bag and to do even more projects at home.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhether you’re a total beginner or an experienced sewist looking to expand your skills, this class is the perfect space in which to disconnect from the rush of everyday life and to connect with an ancient textile craft.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAn email will be sent to participants the Monday before the class.
