Blue Quill Community Clothing Repair Clinic

Did you know that wearing your clothes longer is the most impactful way to reduce fashions carbon footprint? Sometimes, in order to wear your clothes longer, they need to be repaired or altered. Join us for a free productive social engagement. During our community clothing repair clinic you bring your clean apparel items needing repair, and you use our machines, various tools, and diverse scraps to repair, mend, and re-imagine your own items under the guidance of our volunteer expert’s. (though we have basic supplies if your item needs a zipper replacement, you are responsible for bringing the new zipper) Event is Free (max 40 people).

you are in the right place whether you already know how to repair your clothes and just want a space to tackle your mending pile with others OR you need a little help to learn how to repair your clothes.

This event is designed as a teaching and educational enrichment experience, the goal is that you learn to do your own repairs, and leave the event with new skills to make similar repairs on your own in the future. (we will not do the repair for you)

due to the nature of having Hot irons, cords running across the floor, and sharp objects like pins and needles we suggest all those in attendance are over the age of 10.
