“I was almost completely new to Sashiko so this class was exactly what I needed to set me up with the knowledge to attempt any Sashiko project.
The venue was nice, the afternoon tea was delicious and Nicole is a great teacher and shared so much knowledge and experience!”
“This workshop was perfectly pitched for beginners in a beautifully equipped studio.We were enticed with many samples, guided through the techniques and well on the way of finishing our individual project with encouragement to explore the further by a skilled and congenial tutor. Plus a very yummy cake. I would happily recommend this workshop for anyone interested in mindful stitchcraft.”
“I really enjoyed this workshop. The studio was bright and sunny,the fabrics were gorgeous to work with, and Nicole was very clear with her instructions. She was very helpful throughout the day and she clearly enjoyed her sashiko and boro creations. I am inspired to explore sashiko and boro more fully. Thanks Nicole, I would recommend this workshop to anyone who is inspired by fabric. Kim Nalder.”
“I thoroughly enjoyed doing this class with my granddaughter. Nicole was very knowledgeable and helpful and provided great guidance on how to construct the Sashiko fabric pieces. I highly recommend this class to anyone wishing to experience this style of traditional Japanese embroidery”
“Great class and good teacher. You don’t get to finish your project, however, given detailed instructions on how to finish. Would be good to have two or three classes to get a finished project. However, it was worthwhile.”
“I was a complete beginner at my first workshop and was enthralled from the start. It was great to learn a craft that allows you to produce beautiful and practical pieces of work from the start. It encourages you to want to do more. Nicole is a knowledgeable and creative teacher. I'm looking forward to my next workshop.”
“Class was a good size and we were given clear instructions from the beginning, as to how to locate class and what we would need for the class. A great variety of materials to allow very individual projects. The teacher, Nicole was fantastic, great pace to class and very helpful. Thanks very much”
