Cha-no-yu + Sashiko - Žh‚΅Žq - Japanese stitching by KIMONO{

KIMONO+ and SAIAN will held in a workshop.

Sashiko is a sewing technique that uses traditional geometric pattern stitching.
It looks like drawing with thread on the various fabrics.

Originally, sashiko was used in Japan to repair holes in clothes, reinforcing them
and allowing the scarce fabrics to be used for as long as possible.

KIMONO+ thinks sashiko is a simple and easy way to have a feeling of taking care of things.
It allows us to express ourselves with familiar materials.

After sashiko, you will be invited as a guest to the tea ceremony,
held in the cha-sitsu (’ƒŽΊ), tea ceremony room, which has tatamis.
There, you will savour a bowl of light matcha from Kyoto,
and enjoy the moment of cha-no-yu in a mood of relaxing.

Try making an artwork on fabric from your own pattern and feel the cha-no-yu moment!


* You can sit in the cha-shitsu in either the Japanese way or the Western way.
