Maker's Moments

When the world feels overwhelming, makers have a superpower: we can literally stop time by picking up our tools.

Maker's Moments is our antidote to the chaos—six restorative projects built around sashiko, boro, and kogin-zashi that don't demand heavy concentration or marathon sessions. These are the projects you reach for when you need to reset, recharge, and let your hands do the thinking for a while. Pick them up, take your moment, put them down when you're ready to save the Universe again. Each project includes video tutorials and downloadable instructions, so you can dive in whenever you need that creative breath.
