Mending is an eco-friendly way to extend the life of beloved items, be it your favorite sweater, t-shirt, or socks, everything can be mended! It is not only limited to repairing damages or imperfections, we can also add our personal touch to create one of a kind designs.
In this 3-hour mending class, we will learn all the basics on how to mend creatively; techniques such as visible and invisible mending, darning, weaving, and much more.
Please bring an item that you would like to mend with you to this workshop and we will put our heads together to see which will be the best technique suitable for your item.
