Learn the Japanese art of sashiko mending, using decorative hand-stitching to repair, strengthen and breathe new life into worn clothing.
About this Event

Inspired by today's waste age and throwaway culture, we'll discover how simple hand-stitching techniques can bring new life to clothing that deserves a longer future.

Drawing on traditional repair methods while reimagining them for tomorrow, we'll use reclaimed and second-hand fabrics to create decorative patchwork and explore visible mending, hand darning, repairing hems, replacing buttons and other practical techniques.

Participants can experiment with the materials provided or bring along their own garment for repair assessment.

Everyone will leave with a practical toolkit of hand-sewn repair skills, feeling inspired and confident to continue upcycling at home.


This workshop is part of Camden Inspire 2026, a weekend of creative workshops, talks and activities exploring how our communities can come together to build a fairer, healthier and more resilient future in a changing climate. Browse all of our workshops here.
