Participants will create a hand-sewn, one-of-a-kind tea mat (or a set of coasters) in the rustic Japanese "wabi-sabi" style, using naturally-dyed organic fabric & thread.  In this 2.5-hour workshop, we will learn about the "wabi-sabi" philosophy and put it into practice by making a tea mat (or 4 coasters) out of organic, naturally dyed fabrics. The focus will be on slow, intentional stitching while letting go of perfectionism and expectation. Saturday, May 18 from 10 am - 12:30 pm at Folkmoot. Room A-11. 112 Virginia Ave. Building B, Waynesville, NC 28786
