About the event


Kinusaiga Workshop – Create Your Own Textured Fabric Artwork

Join me at Studio Infinara for a relaxed and creative workshop exploring the beautiful art of Kinusaiga. Kinusaiga is a contemporary Japanese craft where beautiful fabric scraps are tucked into a foam base to create gorgeous, 3D textured pictures. It is often described as a mix between a cosy jigsaw puzzle and textile art—and it is one of the most meditative, satisfying crafts you will ever try.


The Ultimate Mistake-Proof Craft!

If you often feel intimidated by art classes or worry about making mistakes, this workshop is your safe haven. Because there is no tricky stitching involved, Kinusaiga is entirely reversible! If you tuck a piece of fabric in and do not like how it looks, you simply pull it out and try a different texture or colour. It is a completely judgement-free space designed to help you de-stress and play.

As a local artist, I have been creating art my whole life and have more than a decade of teaching experience. I will guide you through the process step-by-step, ensuring you leave with a finished piece you are proud of.


Choose Your Summer Design

To make the session completely stress-free, I have pre-cut four beautiful, exclusive 15cm x 15cm templates inspired by our local coastal landscape and summer gardens. When you book, you can choose your favourite pattern to style:

  • The Summer Daisy: A cheerful central bloom with sleek geometric background lines.

  • The Rolling Hills: A dreamy landscape with a vibrant sun and layered green hills.

  • The Coastal Lighthouse: A classic maritime design inspired by Folkestone's very own landmark with swirling waves.

  • The Tropical Fish: A bright, colourful sea creature swimming through the waves.


What’s Included in Your Ticket

All materials and tools are provided, including:

  • Your chosen pre-cut 15cm square foam design block.

  • Access to a massive, colourful buffet of premium fabrics and upcycled fabrics. (You are also welcome to bring your own fabric scraps along!)

  • All specialised tucking tools needed for the workshop.

  • Expert, gentle step-by-step guidance from me.

  • Complimentary tea and coffee to fuel your creative reset.

Whether you’re coming solo for some peaceful 'me-time' or bringing a friend for a creative catch-up, you will find a warm, supportive atmosphere waiting for you.
