Boro Stitching is a type of hand stitching that originated in Japan as a way to mend or patch together clothing or other cloth items. The Slow Stitching movement has really taken hold, and it is one of the most enjoyable and relaxing creative practices I have explored.
We will cover the basics of layout and materials to be used, and spend our time happily stitching away. This type of stitching lends itself perfectly to bags, clothing, home decor, and many other types of items.
