Decorate That Jacket! (Lesley Taylor)

Details

Stitch Your Style – Design on Clothing

Discover the art of wearable creativity! In this hands-on class, you’ll learn to design on clothing using embroidery and Sashiko stitching techniques. You’ll mark your own Sashiko patterns from stencils, then hand-stitch them in colours and styles that reflect your personality. Add depth and texture by hand-appliquéing fabric pieces onto your jacket, creating a unique, custom piece.

Whether you’re new to stitching or looking to expand your skills, this class offers a relaxed, creative space to experiment, learn, and walk away with a one-of-a-kind garment you’ll be proud to wear.
