SUMMARY:The Art of Repair: Visible Mending Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Give your favorite clothes a second life in this beginner-friendly visible mending workshop. You’ll learn simple hand-sewing techniques to repair holes\, reinforce worn areas\, and embrace repairs as part of a garment’s story rather than something to hide. \nWe’ll cover several practical mending methods\, including patching and woven darning\, while discussing when each technique works best. Whether you’re repairing a well-loved sweater\, a pair of jeans\, or simply want to build a more sustainable wardrobe\, you’ll leave with the skills and confidence to keep your clothes in circulation longer. \nBring one or two clean garments in need of repair—think small holes\, worn elbows\, or thinning fabric—and we’ll guide you through choosing the best repair technique for each one. Extra practice materials will also be available.
