Mending Arts & Sashiko Supplies
Mending is an act of care, creativity, and connection. the workroom's collection of visible mending and sashiko supplies is curated for makers who believe repair can be both functional and deeply beautiful.
Rooted in the Japanese tradition of sashiko, these tools and materials support visible mending practices that honour fabric, time, and craft. Whether you’re reinforcing well-loved garments, patching denim, or exploring decorative stitching for the first time, you’ll find supplies that invite intention and slow making.
the workroom has everything you need to dive into embroidery, from vibrant floss and fun kits to hoops, needles, and handy tools. Whether you're a beginner or an expert, we've got you covered to get stitching in no time!
Why Mending Matters
Mending reconnects us to our clothing and to ourselves. It’s a sustainable practice, a creative outlet, and a gentle rebellion against disposable culture. Visible mending and sashiko invite us to slow down, notice details, and celebrate marks of wear as part of a garment’s story.
Whether you’re repairing a tear, reinforcing a favourite piece, or learning sashiko as a meditative stitching practice, the workroom has curated a collection of supplies to support your process.
