Description
Bring along some clothes or items that need mending and any questions or just come by for a chat. There will also be scraps for you to practice on if you don't have anything to bring along and fix. Find out how with a little love and attention you can make your clothes last longer and add value and interest.
Relax and enjoy the shared social experience of mending within a group. Bring along a treasured item of clothing and learn visible mending techniques whilst engaging in conversations around sustainability and fashion.
The session will be run by Meret Faerber. She specialises in visible mending, and it looks really cool. The aim of this event is to introduce students to mending and ways to and how to make mending a great addition to a garment.
