Collection: Visible Mending (Darning, Kantha, Sashiko)
Hand sewing is a global tradition: every culture has its own way of repairing what we love and making it last. This collection supports that lineage with tools, kits, and patterns for slow, intentional making.
Visible mending is the broad umbrella—embracing sashiko, darning, boro, kantha, patchwork, and other regional forms that turn repair into art instead of disposal. Sashiko builds strength through repetition, kantha layers stories into cloth, boro and darning rebuild and reinforce.
Embroidery stands beside them as pure expression—texture, color, and meaning stitched into fabric.
Sewing that keeps clothing—and memory—in circulation.
