Invite-Only Kinusaiga Workshop: Sunday, August 30

Kinusaiga is Japanese patchwork made without a needle. You press strips of fabric into grooves scored in a foam base, and the picture builds up shape by shape until it reads like a quilt. Nothing gets sewn and nothing gets glued.

In two and a half hours you'll finish one framed piece and take it home the same afternoon.

If a weekend afternoon doesn't work, the same workshop runs Thursday, August 27 from 6:00 to 8:30 pm.

What's included
All of it. The foam base, the frame, the fabric, the tools, and light refreshments while you work. All we need is you.

Who it's for
Beginners, mostly. There's no drawing, no cutting to a line, and no machine to fight with. If you can push a scrap of fabric into a groove with a butter knife, you can make one of these, and the fabric does most of the work of making it look good.

Where
Start Small Farms HQ in Sinking Spring, PA. The full address and parking notes go out in your confirmation email once you book.

We're keeping these first two small on purpose, while we work out what a good version of this afternoon actually looks like.

If you can't come
Email us as soon as you know and we'll move your spot to another date, or to another person if you'd rather send someone in your place.

If you want the daytime version, a session for a homeschool group, or something for a work team, tell us. Those are the next ones we're building.
