Visible Mending w/ Sophia DeJesus-Sabella

Darning is the technique of mending a hole in cloth with a needle and thread alone. The process incorporates basic stitching and weaving to create beautiful, functional repairs. With a visible mending approach, we learn the basics on a provided fabric sample, incorporating embroidery stitches, weaving patterns, and color theory along the way. Everyone goes home with a completed sample and small kit to continue their mending at home. Optional: bring a personal garment that needs mending to consult on the best approach.
