Arts, Crafts & Conversation – Sashiko
May 7th, 2026
11:00 - 13:00
This month the carer champions will be sharing their expertise on all forms of Embroidery so why not come and have a go, stay for refreshments and that all important conversation.
Sashiko, meaning “little stabs” in Japanese, is a 400-year-old embroidery technique featuring precise, geometric running stitches, historically used for strengthening, repairing, and insulating clothing with thick white thread on indigo fabric. Originating in the Edo period, it is now popular for functional “visible mending” and decorative art, emphasizing simple tools like sharp needles and cotton thread.
