What you'll do
Did you know that the fashion industry contributes to 10% of global emissions, 20% of global water wastage, and crops such as cotton use 24% of global insecticides? Yikes. Join the sustainable fashion movement, breathe new life into your clothes, and extend its lifespan indefinitely.
Breathe new life into your beloved clothing pieces and join us for a transformative garment repair workshop. Whether you're a novice or a seasoned stitcher, this hands-on session is your ticket to mastering the art of mending and revitalizing your wardrobe staples.
Bring along one or two of your favorite garments in need of some TLC – whether it's a tear, a worn-out area, or a missing button, we've got you covered. Throughout the workshop, our expert instructor will guide you through a range of techniques tailored to different types of repairs, from patching and darning to sewing on buttons.
By the end of the session, you'll not only leave with your newly mended garments but also with the confidence and knowledge to tackle future repairs on your own. Say goodbye to disposable fashion and hello to a wardrobe that's built to last. No prior sewing experience is required – just bring your enthusiasm and a willingness to learn. All tools and materials will be provided, but feel free to bring your own sewing kit if you have one.
Please note: This class requires at least five students to run. In the unlikely event that we don't get this number of students, we'll cancel the class and fully refund you and inform you via email, so please watch your email a few days prior to the class
Please note: This venue is located on the first floor via a flight of stairs and does not have wheelchair accessibility.
