Visible Mending: Hand-Stitching to Repair and Upgrade Your Wardrobe

Sustainability & Nature
Making and mending go hand in hand. Bring a favorite sweater, pants, or other textile (or just bring your hands and use the samples we'll have on hand) and learn to mend holes, cover stains, and add beautiful new colors and textures.

What inspired you to make this project?
I don't like throwing things away! Especially clothing and housewares that meet my needs. I've been repairing clothing out of need since I was a teenager, and the rise of "Visible Mending" as a defined practice in the past decade has been inspirational to me. I want to share it.
