Kinusaiga Workshop

Date: Saturday, October 17th: 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM Location: The Cabana Bar and Grill, Poiupu What to Expect This beginner-friendly class teaches the full process of Kinusaiga, from understanding its history and tools to creating a framed artwork using fabric without stitching. The workshop emphasizes a meditative, eco-friendly approach and is ideal for quilters, crafters, and fabric enthusiasts. Pattern choice Each guest selects one of two provided patterns — For this workshop we are offering the Kauai Sunset and Autumn Kabocha. These designs are prepared by the instructor, so you focus on fabric selection and placement rather than drawing or cutting the overall shape. What the class involves Beginner‑friendly: No sewing, needle, or machine required; no prior experience needed. Hands‑on: Guests trace the chosen pattern onto foam, score shallow lines, and tuck fabric edges into the cuts. Fabric selection: You may use your own scraps or the studio’s supply. Creative freedom: While the pattern is fixed, you choose the fabrics, so your piece will be unique. Step‑by‑step guidance: The instructor will walk you through the process, ensuring everyone completes a finished, framed piece to take home. Where You’ll Be This class is hosted by The Cabana Bar and Grill. The Cabana is part of the Poipu Beach Athletic Club located at 2290 Poipu Road, Poipu. The Cabana will have their bar menu available for guests to purchase drinks and pupus. Age Requirement Participants must be 12 years or older. Youth ages 8–17 must attend with a registered adult What You’ll Take Home By the end of the session, you’ll have a completed, framed Kinusaiga piece that reflects your chosen pattern and your personal fabric choices.
