About this Event

Give your clothes a second life—one stitch at a time.

In this beginner-friendly workshop, you'll learn practical hand-sewing techniques that make repairing and customizing clothing easy and enjoyable. We'll cover how to sew a clean hem, repair small tears and holes, reinforce worn areas, and make simple alterations using just a needle and thread.

Rather than hiding repairs, you'll also explore visible mending techniques that turn fixes into unique design elements, adding personality and character to your favorite pieces. Bring a garment that needs a little love, or practice on provided fabric samples.

You'll learn:

  • Basic hand-sewing stitches
  • How to hem pants, skirts, and sleeves
  • Repairing rips, seams, and small holes
  • Visible mending techniques for creative repairs
  • Tips for making your repairs durable and long-lasting

No sewing experience is needed, and all basic materials are provided. Leave with new skills, a repaired garment, and the confidence to keep your wardrobe wearable for years to come.
