About this Event
Are all those little repairs sitting in the corner staring you down? We're here to help! Bring a beverage (or just yourself and your mending) and join us for an early evening stitch-n-b*tch one Saturday a month. And, bonus-- as soon as you fix it, you can wear it out to wherever you're going next!
We provide:
- Tables you don't have to clean off before you use them
- Pins & Needles you don't have to locate before you start or clean out of your carpet when you're done.
- Black, white, and tan thread (please BYO thread if you need a specific color match)
- Sewing machines
- Professional textile artists to advise, consult, and help you figure out how to un-jam the sewing machines.
- Scrap fabrics and trims
- Iron and board
- Jewelry pliers, jump rings, really good lighting, and someone else to help you hold the thing while you do the other thing.
- Necklace clasps
Also available for a nominal fee:
These are items that usually have to be purchased in packs or multi-project quantities. We sell them at a per-item price so that you don't have to buy a $7 pack of snaps when all you need is a single $1 snap.
- Buttons
- Snaps
- Fusible interfacing
This event is open to students ages 21+ at all levels of experience.
