sewing spa, sewing therapy, however you'd like to call it.

warashi-ko provides jinbei making workshops at the studio.

Participants choose from selected warashi-ko designs to make their own jinbei. Sizes are 0-2 yr (70-80cm) and 2-4 yr (90-100cm). The jinbei making kit includes: hand-dyed 100% cotton textiles, thread, needle, elastic and instruction card.

At a sunny light-filled space with singing birds, music and scents in the background, the participants found the workshop to be relaxing event. Some called it "sewing therapy", and some "sewing spa". We are very happy to be able to provide that kind of experience, and to assist participants in sewing their own jinbei for their little ones. Our deepest pleasure.

Lovely Saturday morning with lovely ladies! Amy has been my friend (kids' are same age), and Tatiana has been Amy's friend! We just had lovely time, making jinbei and chatting out :)

Amy worked on #020 kurage in the paradise for her 1 year old son, and Tatiana on #026 yagasuri kumo for her expecting boy baby! Tatiana was actually first non-Asian, pregnant mom to participate in the workshop!

Both Amy and Tatiana felt the 2-hour workshop sort of like an oasis from the usual weekend morning (they both have 2 kids ;). Tatiana particularly enjoyed Bossanova in the background, since she was just living Brazil for few years, and tea + scent were all additional goodness.

I enjoy hosting the workshops very much. I love re-connecting with friends, meeting new friends, and love that they find the workshop to be relaxing and precious time.
