February Workshops

Workshop: Sashiko, Visible Mending, and Community Social

Kick off 2026 with a commitment to sustainability and creativity. Our February 28 workshop is designed for those who want to slow down, learn the traditional Japanese art of Sashiko, and meet like-minded makers in West Valley City.

Choose Your Path:

• The Mender’s Path: Bring a garment from home that needs some love. We will guide you through Sashiko-style visible mending, turning tears into textile art. ($8)

• The Maker’s Path: Not ready to mend? Use one of our curated kits to create a Sashiko Bookmark or a Mug Rug. These projects are perfect for mastering stitch consistency and geometric patterns. ($8-$20)

• The Social Path (BYOP): Already have a project in progress? Bring your embroidery or hand-sewing and enjoy the dedicated time and community atmosphere. ($5)

Why Sashiko? Sashiko (literally "little stabs") is a form of decorative reinforcement stitching from Japan. It’s the perfect skill for the modern environmentalist—it allows us to celebrate the history of our belongings rather than replacing them.
