Do I need to know how to sew?

No, no experience necessary! This workshop is beginner-friendly and suitable for all skill levels.

Bring a couple of garments you’d like to mend—ideally made from non-stretch material (cotton, linen, or denim), to make it easier for you to learn. If you’re not sure, bring it along and we’ll help you decide.

What if I don't have anything to mend?

You might want to bring an item that can be embelished (doesn't have a hole but you want to decorate it). We’ll also have practice fabric available so you can still learn the technique.

Can I take what I make home?

Absolutely—anything you stitch or start in the workshop is yours to take home, along with your mending supplies if you'd like to keep working.

Is this suitable for kids?

This session is designed for adults and older teens (ages 14+), but feel free to get in touch if you'd like to come as a family—we may be able to accommodate.
