Hand Stitched + Naturally Fed Dream Sachet Workshop

When: Saturday, January, 4th; 12-4 pm

Location: Crossroads Hotel Gallery, 2101 Central St, Kansas City, MO 64108

The word Sachet can mean many things– a sewn bag filled with lavender thrown in an underwear drawer, a tied cheesecloth bundle of spices thrown in a soup, a packet of tea; it is a small package for transporting something– a smell, a flavor– from one place to another. For the purposes of this workshop, we will be creating a sachet for keeping with us when we move from our waking life to our sleeping life, or perhaps from our conscious persona to our unconscious mind, our future to our present maybe, in hopes of bringing one closer to the other

And so, in this workshop we will familiarize ourselves with the material and ideas of what a sachet can be.  After which we will hand stitch with needle and thread natural dye material from my garden and other land - marigold, dyer’s chamomile, coreopsis, sulphur cosmos, yarrow flowers, osage and logwood.  Then we will play with how warm water will affect the stuffed fillings and bring color to the sachet material.  Finally, we will stitch the sachet and have an intentional small bag,or pocket to pack for our dreams.

All supplies will be included in this workshop.

All levels welcome <3
