Give your clothes a second life! Bring a garment that needs a little love or could use a creative refresh, and spend an evening mending, embellishing, and experimenting with new ways to make it your own.
Whether you're fixing a hole, trying Sashiko-inspired mending, adding an iron-on patch, stitching an embroidery design, or decorating with sequins and colorful fabric, we'll have supplies to help you get started. Bring a well-loved sweater, a pair of jeans, a tote bag, or anything else you'd like to update.
This is a relaxed, open-studio meetup rather than a formal class. We'll share ideas, explore techniques, help each other along, and see where our creativity takes us. No sewing experience is necessary. Come ready to experiment, learn from one another, and give something old a new story.
Bring: One or more garments or fabric items you'd like to mend or embellish.
We'll provide: A selection of needles, thread, tons of fabric scraps, embroidery supplies, patches, sequins, and other embellishments, along with basic guidance and inspiration.
