Mending Workshop: Visible & Practical Repairs

Join us for a hands-on mending workshop where you’ll learn a variety of techniques to repair and refresh your well-loved clothing and textiles. This class will cover both visible mending—a creative and decorative approach to patching and stitching—as well as more traditional, subtle repair methods. Participants are encouraged to bring their own items in need of mending, and Kim will guide you through techniques tailored to your specific projects.

Whether you’re new to sewing or looking to build your repair skills, this class offers a welcoming space to learn, share, and give new life to old favorites. Let’s celebrate sustainability and creativity—one stitch at a time!

1:30-3:30pm • Saturdays, August 30, September 27, October 25 • Ages 15 + • Please bring items to repair • Light refreshments will be served • Free
