In this workshop students will learn the basics of sashiko stitching, a traditional Japanese hand embroidery technique for reinforcing fabric. By layering simple stitches in the hitomezashi tradition, students will both repair and decorate a garment in need of mending.We’ll discuss the origins and evolution of hitomezashi, and learn to sketch our own personal patterns. Students should bring along 1-2 pieces of clothing made of woven cotton, linen, or denim to mend
Natalie Stopka’s focus on creative processes is rooted in the materials and forces of the natural world. Drawing on diverse textile and bookbinding techniques, she creates unique objects, that are utilitarian or purely artistic. In her exploration of historical fiber arts, she seeks to refresh half-forgotten methods such as embroidery, fabric marbling, mordant patterning, and the fermentation of natural dyes. These meticulous, layered processes allow each artwork to be materially rooted in a particular space and time created by the intersection of the techniques involved, with a big role for serendipitous chance and a continually evolving vocabulary of texture and pattern. Materials will be provided by the instructor.
