That's ok. Whilst I encourage participating in these chats, they are not an essential part of the course. Our Zoom meet ups will be recorded and uploaded to the course player so you can view them at anytime.

Nice to meet you!
Hi, I'm Kate! I'm a textile artist who loves travelling and the esoteric.
I've earned my BFA, MA, and MFA studying lots of different mediums, but textile arts have my heart - I've been an avid stitcher for more than a decade!
I've been lucky enough to find ways to combine my love of art with my love of travel, studying and creating all over the world. This includes an exchange I got to do at Kyoto Seika University - I have deep fascination and respect for Japanese culture and aesthetics, so this was a dream come true.
As well as my passion for textiles, it's also important to me to live meaningfully and sustainably. I rolled all these passions together with Zen Stitching, and by embracing the beautiful and practical designs of sashiko stitching, I'll help you not only mend your clothes, but also reduce textile waste and practice mindfulness.
