Explore the vibrant art of Kawandi quilting, a traditional hand-stitched technique rooted in the heritage of the Siddi people of India and Pakistan.
This engaging three-hour workshop is open to all skill levels and offers a hands-on introduction to a slow, meditative style of quilt making.
Participants will learn how to layer fabrics and stitch directly onto a backing using simple running stitches, gradually building beautiful texture and rhythm.
Improvisation and creative freedom are at the heart of this process—each piece evolves naturally, with no need for rulers or rigid planning.
Throughout the session, students are encouraged to work intuitively and enjoy the peaceful, tactile nature of hand stitching.
A complete kit is included, containing all the necessary materials: fabric, thread, and needles.
Participants are only asked to bring a pair of scissors and their favorite thimble.
By the end of the workshop, each person will leave with a one-of-a-kind piece and a deeper appreciation for this meaningful and time-honored textile tradition.
