The Patchwork Sashiko River Market Sling Workshop combines two classes in one! Diana will begin by teaching her Patchwork Sashiko Method (also available as a class on its own). This technique is a unique mash up of different slow stitching and patchwork techniques. Then students will create a beautiful new textile to use during the second half of class, where they will sew the River Market Sling. No need to worry about selecting, cutting, and prepping fabric pieces because it’s all provided for you in the materials fee kit along with hardware. The approximate finished size is 9” x 5” x 2”, fully lined with a zippered pocket inside. Sewing machines generously provided by event sponsors!
