THIS MONTH AT THE SOUTH DUNEDIN STREET FESTIVAL.Give Your Clothes a Second Life: Mend & Make Awesome!
Got a hole in your favorite sweater? A zipper that won’t zip? Don't toss it—transform it!
Join us every second Saturday of the month for our Mend & Make Awesome sessions. This isn’t just about fixing clothes; it’s about reimagining them. Whether you want to master a "near-invisible" repair or turn a tear into a beautiful piece of "visible mending" art, this is the place to do it.
Why Mend?
Mending is a small act with a big impact. By choosing to repair instead of replace, you are:
Saving the Planet: Keeping textiles out of landfills and reducing your environmental footprint.
Celebrating Your Style: Adding unique, personal character to your wardrobe that you can't buy in a store.
Reclaiming Skills: Learning the traditional "make do and mend" techniques that empower you to maintain your own belongings.
What to Expect
These sessions are relaxed, social, and packed with practical knowledge.
Expert Guidance: Our skilled tutors are on hand to show you the best techniques for denim repair, darning knits, patching, and more.
Tools of the Trade: We provide access to sewing machines, overlockers, and specialized mending tools.
Inspiration Everywhere: Use our haberdashery and library to find the perfect scrap of fabric or a new technique to make your garment even better than it was before.
