Mend in community and whittle down that never-ending pile of clothes that need to be mended. Come meet and get to know fellow menders! Share your favorite technique for sewing on a button, adding an embroidered embellishment, or sock darning with other menders. Some repairs will benefit from using a sewing machine, we'll have at least one machine at the meet-up. Come spend some structured time to get those holey clothes mended! While some tools and materials will be provided, we suggest bringing your favorite sewing kit from home. We’ll have plenty of fabric scraps and embroidery floss to share. Even if you've never sewn before we can help guide you to repair your clothes. Come mend in community and get your holey clothes back in your wardrobe rotation. Nandi and Emma will be around to share their favorite techniques for mending. A mending kit, sashiko thread, and/or thread snips can be added at checkout.
