I am very excited, and honored, to be a part of the world-known quilting event, QuiltCon 2024 in Raleigh, NC. All of the participants of the class, "Sashiko Workshop: Core & Essence", are required to purchase this supply set. The set includes all of the necessary & unique materials for the workshop.
Please choose how you would like to receive the package.
I am happy to bring any other orders you may want to purchase extra with me to QuiltCon 2024 to save the future shipping fee. If you choose option (3) to receive package at home, I am happy to combine the order. Please use this coupon (HEZIKEBZJZB0) to avoid the extra shipping fee.
*The package of the set is about letter size package (11" x 8.5" x 2"). It is not bulky -it is fabric, thread, and needles. Please check with your Airline if needles are okay to carry on to the plane.
*All items are prepared & imported from Japan. A bit of different packaging from the photos, but the contents are the same.
We use fabric scissors and Scotch tape to teach how to keep the Sashiko thread in a good shape. We use them only once in the workshop, yet they are necessary. Any fabric scissors & tapes would be fine and there are enough scissors in the QuiltCon room.
One of the requests I have received in the previous Quiltcon was the information about the Other Recommended Sashiko Tools & Supplies. I made a item page with a list of tools & supplies that I recommend (but we will NOT use in the workshop). I will mention about them in the workshop to maximize the Sashiko experience after the workshop. They are recommended to have if you plan to continue enjoying the Sashiko we practice. Also, please check our articles & videos for the supplies & Tools.
*This additional Tools are NOT required in the QuiltCon 2024 Sashiko Workshop: Core & Essence.
