Kogin Tree Streaming Workshop
Stitch A Kogin Tree For Your Home!
Kogin-zashi is a traditional Japanese embroidery technique that originated over 200 years ago in Northern Japan utilizing a basic running stitch to make small geometric motifs that can be stitched separately or used to build larger, more complex, mesmerizing patterns. A modern adaptation of this ancient art is the Kogin Tree which combines some of the basic kogin modoko (kogin motifs) into a stunning representation of an evergreen tree. Our Kogin Tree pattern updates the notion of the classic holiday home décor embroidery project by utilizing over 70 individual modoko combined to make up to three glorious Kogin Trees.
This is a beginner-friendly workshop. We will start by reviewing the pattern and the basic kogin stitching techniques used. Then we will provide a few professional tips to increase the efficiency, speed, and accuracy of your stitching.
The workshop pattern comes with three (3) sizes of trees for you to choose from. Each can be framed or incorporated in other home decor projects and gifts. Once you have your stitched masterpiece, we show you how to display your Kogin Tree as a wall hanging or throw pillow.
The workshop includes both the downloadable Kogin Tree digital patterns with full instructions, individual modoko, and a shopping guide for supplies. Perfect for all crafters interested in Kogin-zashi, get ready for a meditative project that makes a great gift for the holidays. We promise you'll walk away from the class inspired to stitch up your own Kogin Tree for the holiday season ahead… or for any time you want a unique, handmade project to adorn your home.
