About

Join us for an exciting event demonstrating Sue Spargo embroidery techniques.

This hands-on forum offers a unique blend of learning, creativity, and community engagement. Engage in hands-on activities featuring the "Running Stitch" and "Sashiko Embroidery." Master the running stitch, and explore the beauty of Sashiko, a traditional Japanese embroidery technique. Create hand-stitched mini tetras from fabric scraps, quick-to-sew projects ideal for using leftover materials.

Enjoy the satisfaction of completing a charming project that sparks your creativity. Be inspired by an exhibition showcasing various handmade and hand-sewn items, from intricate embroidery to whimsical fabric creations, highlighting the diversity and creativity within the sewing community. This forum offers a unique opportunity to learn, engage in fun and educational sewing projects, explore the exhibition display, and connect with fellow sewing enthusiasts from the Oakville community.

Join us for a day of creativity, learning, and community. We look forward to seeing you there!
