About this Event
Bring something old or something new to you and give your clothes a second life! In this hands-on class, you’ll learn practical skills to repair, refresh, and tailor your wardrobe. We’ll cover simple mending techniques (hemming, patching, fixing seams, sewing on buttons) as well as basic tailoring adjustments to improve fit and comfort. No prior sewing experience is required—just bring a garment you’d like to work on, any notions you will need, your creativity and we’ll provide guidance every step of the way.
By the end of class, you’ll walk away with:
✔️ Confidence to tackle common clothing repairs
✔️ Skills to adjust garments for a better fit
✔️ Knowledge to extend the life of your wardrobe sustainably
