Learn the Art of Visible Mending!

Instead of hiding your mending, highlight it and celebrate the uniqueness of your item. The Shop is offering a three part beginning series on the art of visible mending by hand:

  • Sep. 16: Sashiko Stitching
  • Oct. 21: Boro Patching
  • Nov. 18: Embroidery Mending

Sign up for all three events or just one. Please bring a piece of clothing that needs to be mended or decorated for the Oct. 21 and Nov. 18 events. Previous knowledge of basic hand sewing is recommended.

All students must complete a Maker Waiver Agreement prior to participating in this class.

Registration is required. Ages 18+. If you are registered but are unable to attend, we ask that you cancel your registration using the link found in the registration email.
