About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours

Sagging hems? Popped seams? Dangling or missing buttons? Don't toss those items, they can usually be fixed. Come watch the transformation from broken to beautiful.

✨ Barbara will happily show you how to fix this yourself, or she will make the necessary repairs to make those old things usable again.

One exception - zippers! If you have broken zippers, plan to take them to a local dry cleaner for repair. Barbara doesn't even do her own zipper replacement.
