Sashiko Tote Bag Kit - Mindful Mending
Welcome to the journey of visible mending! In this kit you'll learn the basics of the Japanese art of Sashiko. This is a perfect beginner kit and while learning the technique, you'll also create an embellished tote bag to use everyday!
Sashiko is a traditional Japanese stitching technique. The word "Sashiko" means ‘little stabs’ in Japanese and it utilizes small running stitches to create a network of lines that can be used to mend weak spots and affix appliqué and patches. It can also be used strictly for beauty, creating something unique and wonderful.
