What to bring for the Sashiko Workshop?

All of the necessary tools & supplies will be prepared in a package above. Some of them are exclusively prepared for this workshop, so please purchase the package to join the Sashiko workshop above.

You can check the list of items included in the special workshop package.

Besides the unique tools & supplies package you would purchase from us, it may be a good idea to have several general sewing tools. Please bring the tools below for the better experience (not required, but recommended). The list of tools are NOT included to the material package you purchase.

Tools:

*We do not use them all the time, so if Aya Studio has some, you may be able to use theirs instead of bringing your own to the workshop. However, it is recommended to bring them to make the workshop more comfortable.

• Ruler (s)

• Scissors (Fabric Scissors will be better)

• Notepad & something to write with

• Scotch Tape

• Pincushion / Needle Rest

• Regular Sewing set

  • Sewing needles / dressmaker pins (to hold fabrics)

  • Sewing thread

  • Pins

• Bandage or masking tape to protect the finger’s nail (☆) - only if you would like to protect the nail (the detail is available in the welcome email).

Supplies:

• Any garments you would like to have Sashiko stitches on, mainly for Day-2. Several garments/options would be great for mending & for actual Sashiko stitching. Stretchy fabric (stretch denim), hard fabric (raw denim or canvas), and other non-cotton fabric are not recommended to practice Sashiko for the first time.

• Any (Sashiko) threads, needles, thimbles and fabrics that they would like to confirm how to use (not required).

• Any books they would like to share (I do not have recommendations for books in English, though).

This is designated materials for only you (workshop participants). Please do not share with others.

• First Day Slides PDF (The Core of Sashiko)
• Second Day Slides PDF (Sashiko & Mending)
• Third Day Slides PDF (Hitomezashi)
• The preview of How to stitch for the first day materials

It has been very challenging years since the pandemic started. It is my sincere pleasure to offer my workshops with you, with 3 days Workshop.
