Join us for a delightful and hands-on workshop designed to introduce you to the timeless art of hand-sewing. By the end of this class, students will have created a hand-sewn patchwork pincushion.

You will learn basic hand-sewing techniques, including cutting, piecing, and assembling small patchwork pieces, as well as how to sew the pincushion together and add a functional and beautiful embellishment to your sewing space. We’ll also explore ways to personalize your pincushion with a few optional finishing touches, ensuring that no two are ever alike. Perfect for beginner and intermediate crafters alike, this workshop offers a calm and rewarding experience where you can connect with the meditative process of hand-sewing and bring home a piece of handcrafted beauty.

Please note: while we don't offer makeup classes, our commitment to excellence is unwavering. Check out our policy here: https://blaircenter.com/pages/policies-faqs for a smooth journey ahead!

 

About the Artist 

Mariah was born and raised in Maine, where she first discovered her love of textiles. Starting at a young age, she collected scraps of fabric from hand-me-down clothing, antique linens, and her mother’s tattered scarf that lay hidden in a box of memories. While collecting these scraps, she didn’t have a plan, she just couldn’t bear to get rid of them. Each piece had its own sentiment and a story she knew she would one day share. A new life for these scraps came to fruition when she discovered a unique form of Korean textile art known as Bojagi. Mariah immediately fell in love with the symbolism inherent to the practice and the peace of mind each stitch brought her. It also resonated with her as a means of connecting to her Korean heritage and practicing sustainability. 

She has since expanded her bojagi practice by also incorporating experiments with fabric manipulation, sashiko, and sculpture. Mariah holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Graphic Design from SCAD. She utilizes her degree to create an elevated visual experience for her workshops and community events.
