1 DAY WORKSHOP Visible Mending & Clothing Embellishment
Description
Join us as we create connection and thoughtfulness in keeping clothes. We will be exploring visible mending techniques such as Sashiko stitching, embroidery, applique and darning as a creative way to embrace and celebrate wear and tear. Bring your worn out, and in need of some love, clothing and we'll show you our take on sashiko stitching and guide you to some astonishing embroidery and darning techniques. We believe there’s a wealth of power in a tiny needle and thread – loved clothes that last are part of the change we need to protect our planet and respect the people who craft our clothes. So jump on board and show up for a glow up!
What's included in the price?
Sewing equipment. Embroidery threads, beautiful fabric off-cuts, patches and darning wool. We have Bernina and Frister Rossman sewing machines and shared use of two overlockers. We have everything you need so there's no need to bring your own sewing equipment - unless you’d like to, of course! There’s plenty of space to sew and the studio is full of natural light. Why not enjoy perusing our library of sewing books or browsing through the ‘Forever Clothes Swap’ rail while you here!
