Hana Fukin

Come stitch with us.

In this relaxed one-night class, we’ll gather around the table to start a hana-fukin—gridded sashiko cloths traditionally used in Japanese kitchens. These cloths are humble, useful, and deeply beautiful: a place where rhythm, geometry, and handwork come together.

You’ll learn how to read a pre-printed grid, follow a pattern, and build up lines of sashiko stitches with simple tools. It’s an easy entry point if you’ve been curious about visible mending or handwork in general—and a satisfying evening project if you just want to make something with your hands.

You’ll leave with a piece that's only just begun and everything you need to keep stitching at home. No experience necessary.

Get ready for a meditative experience. Be prepared to leave with a lifelong appreciation for the art of the running stitch.
