The Mending Circle -- A Night of Patching, Fixing, and Altering Your Clothes
Do you also have a stack of clothes at home that could use a quick fix or attention, but you just haven’t gotten to it? Drop in with your well-loved garments and learn how to give them a second life! We’ll even help you make some simple alterations to improve fit and function.
Whether you need to fix a torn seam, darn a hole in a sweater, reinforce stress points, or patch a blown out knee, this open studio-style workshop provides the space, tools, and guidance to help you extend the life of your family's clothing. Simple alterations welcome too: hem pants, shorten sleeves, turn a dress into an elastic-waist skirt. Bring in as many pieces as you like.
Susanne will be there to troubleshoot your mending and alteration needs and to guide you through both hand- and machine sewing techniques, using both visible and invisible mending methods. Small fixes can make a big difference--saving you money, reducing waste, and allowing you to keep wearing your favorite clothes for years to come. Beginners more than welcome!
