Learn how to embrace the wear of clothes by creating colorful visible mends on practice fabric or garments. This class utilizes a combination of Japanese sashiko techniques paired with other visible mending techniques for a diversity of tactics to repair clothes.

Mending Knitware

A trickier fabric to mend, students will focus on how to repair stretchy fabrics without warping the appearance of the garments. We will talk about the different tools that can help with this, including the speedweave, stabilizer, and darning eggs.

Machine Mending

While sashiko and woven mends are beautiful, they are also time consuming. This class focuses on how to utilize different stitches on your home sewing machine to repair your non-stretch garments.
