Mending Circle: Creative Clothing Repair

This hands-on class will introduce a variety of techniques for mending and refreshing your clothing, with a focus on hand sewing. We'll explore sashiko-inspired patching, embroidery (from the basics to more decorative techniques), darning, and creative ways to cover stains and extend the life of your favorite pieces.

Bring a few garments that could use some love, and we'll work together to repair, personalize, and give them a second life. Along the way, you'll build practical skills, gain confidence with simple repair techniques, and connect with others who are interested in making their wardrobes last longer.

This class is rooted in community, creativity, sustainability, and the joy of learning. You'll leave with repaired clothing, new skills, and inspiration to keep mending long after the class ends.
