About this Event
Stay on trend this spring with a workshop that celebrates “visible mending” fashion. Mending clothing extends the life cycle of your clothing as well as allowing your style to bloom creatively. Many cultures undertake the task of mending in community groups (i.e. sewing bees or sewing circles) which allow for a multitude of ways to mend clothing. This workshop will discuss darning -- a way to fill in a hole with thread or wool, Boro -- a Japanese mending technique where a patch of fabric is laid over or under a hole, and then rows of running stitches secure the patch to the original garment, and free hand embroidery. So grab a holey sweater, an old pair of jeans, or a well loved garment to mend with other re-fashionistas!
