Let us make a sample booklet! This four-page, double-sided sampler displays a variety of sashiko designs, woven sashiko and a bit of Boro technique. The cover will include Boro and an original dragonfly design and is lined with pockets to keep all your sashiko tools together. Learn to make a twisted cord tie to wrap around a decorative button for a charmingly simple closure. The pages will be worked on in class and Jill will have a step-by-step demonstration for completing the booklet at home. You will leave with a complete set of instructions. Bring your own fabric; see supply list for details.
