In this class, we will follow step by step instructions to create a unique explosion box!

This is an introductory hands-on class designed to learn the “ins and outs” of the Japanese running stitch technique called Sashiko.

We’ll create a small sampler of stitches and patterns, which can then be made into a potholder, a small quilt. Fabric, thread and tools are supplied, along with many handouts that will help you continue your journey long after class is over. *A materials fee of $25 is due to the instrcutor on the first night of class.
