Add a touch of earth-friendly beauty to your home with your very own Boro-inspired mini wall hanging! In this workshop, you'll explore the traditional Japanese techniques of Boro patchwork and Sashiko stitching. Using scrap fabrics and visible, decorative stitches, create an abstract, seasonal, or themed wall hanging that reflects your personal style. This is a perfect project for anyone who loves artful, meaningful home décor—and no experience is necessary!
