Learn how to mend your denim and woven clothing with beautiful hand stitches. Join Erin for an information-packed, hands-on workshop to learn a sashiko-style visible mending technique. Make your own sashiko stitched sample pattern, and learn “tips and tricks” to get you started on mending. This is a great class for beginners and seasoned hand stitchers alike with an interest in hand stitching as both a functional and beautiful craft.
This three-hour workshop includes:
A presentation of mending materials and how they are used in practice.
A hands-on tutorial to practice and complete a patch, in the sashiko-style embroidery technique.
An explanation of how to repair specific types of mends (crotch/butt patching, threadbare areas, torn pockets, worn knees).
An opportunity to ask questions about your specific repair.
Add flair to your wardrobe and upcycle your well-loved denim with this craft idea! Bring some friends along to support each other as you learn a new skill. Or use this workshop as a gift idea for a crafter in your life!
