Sashiko\, which translates to “little stabs”\, traditionally uses white cotton thread on dark blue indigo-dyed fabric. A single running stitch is used to create lovely geometric patterns that can be used to decorate fabric or reinforce ripped denim\, sewn by hand. You will learn how to properly execute this running stitch\, and transfer geometric designs onto indigo-dyed linen. Our instructor will guide you in the creation of your own sashiko design sampler. Once everyone has the technique down\, you will learn how to apply this sashiko technique to your ripped jeans in order to repair and reinforce areas where the denim has torn or frayed. \n\n\n\nSupplies Needed: None! All fabric\, thread\, and sashiko needles are provided for you to keep. For extra credit\, we strongly encourage you to bring a pair of ripped jeans to repair! \n \nInstructor Bio: Fueled by a long time desire to avoid jeans shopping at any cost\, WorkshopSF sewing instructor and DIY Jack of All Trades Hayley learned the art of sashiko in order to keep her jeans in rotation for what some have called “too long”. She now has become addicted to sashiko mending\, and swears she owns at least one pair of jeans somewhere that lack rips or sashiko. Of course\, no one has ever seen them… Check out photos of her sashiko magic on Insta at @pretzelegant_sashiko.  \n \nThe rules / important stuff: We have a NO EXCEPTIONS 72 HOUR CANCELLATION policy – this includes cancellation\, re-books\, gift certificates\, moving classes\, etc. For more information on canceling a class\, please read our cancellation policy.

Sashiko\, which translates to “little stabs”\, traditionally uses white cotton thread on dark blue indigo-dyed fabric. A single running stitch is used to create lovely geometric patterns that can be used to decorate fabric or reinforce ripped denim\, sewn by hand. You will learn how to properly execute this running stitch\, and transfer geometric designs onto indigo-dyed linen. Our instructor will guide you in the creation of your own sashiko design sampler. Once everyone has the technique down\, you will learn how to apply this sashiko technique to your ripped jeans in order to repair and reinforce areas where the denim has torn or frayed. \n\n\n\nSupplies Needed: None! All fabric\, thread\, and sashiko needles are provided for you to keep. For extra credit\, we strongly encourage you to bring a pair of ripped jeans to repair! \n \nInstructor Bio: Fueled by a long time desire to avoid jeans shopping at any cost\, WorkshopSF sewing instructor and DIY Jack of All Trades Hayley learned the art of sashiko in order to keep her jeans in rotation for what some have called “too long”. She now has become addicted to sashiko mending\, and swears she owns at least one pair of jeans somewhere that lack rips or sashiko. Of course\, no one has ever seen them… Check out photos of her sashiko magic on Insta at @pretzelegant_sashiko.  \n \nThe rules / important stuff: We have a NO EXCEPTIONS 72 HOUR CANCELLATION policy – this includes cancellation\, re-books\, gift certificates\, moving classes\, etc. For more information on canceling a class\, please read our cancellation policy.
