Kogin Embroidery Button Workshop

Slow down and stitch something beautiful. In this hands-on Kogin Embroidery Button Workshop, you’ll be introduced to the traditional Japanese folk embroidery style of Kogin-zashi while creating your own set of charming embroidered buttons.

Kogin is known for its rhythmic, geometric patterns and mindful repetition, making it both meditative and deeply satisfying. You’ll learn the basics of reading simple Kogin patterns, working with even stitches, and building up a design that becomes a functional piece of wearable or giftable art.

Each participant will create several finished fabric-covered buttons to take home, perfect for embellishing bags, jackets, pin boards, or gifting to a fellow fiber lover. No prior embroidery experience is needed. This class is beginner-friendly and welcoming, with step-by-step guidance and all materials provided.

Come sip, stitch, and connect in a cozy, creative atmosphere where tradition meets modern handwork. You’ll leave with new skills, beautiful buttons, and a little stitched joy to carry with you.
