Note: This is a 4 week workshop (Wednesdays starting March 26th)Step into a world where sustainability meets serenity. Join expert craftsperson Lura Baker for an immersive workshop that goes beyond simple repairs to embrace the art of mindful mending. You'll not only learn to give new life to textiles but also discover how the rhythmic motion of needle and thread can become a form of meditation.
As fast fashion races ahead, we're taking a conscious step back. In this hands-on workshop, you'll create your own uniquely embroidered tote bag while mastering essential mending techniques. From the satisfying simplicity of a running stitch to the decorative strength of a blanket stitch, you'll gain practical skills that blend beauty with functionality.
But this isn't just about fixing tears – it's about weaving mindfulness into every stitch. Lura will guide you through selecting sustainable materials and understanding their environmental impact, all while teaching you how the mindful practice of mending can become a treasured part of your daily routine.
You'll leave with:
•A personally embroidered tote bag
•A repertoire of hand-sewing techniques
•Knowledge of sustainable mending materials
•Practical skills to repair and revive your wardrobe
•A deeper understanding of how mindful mending can enhance your well-being
Join us in this journey of creative sustainability, where every stitch tells a story and every repair becomes an act of mindful rebellion against throwaway culture.
Space is limited. Bring your curiosity – all materials provided.
