About this event
Add some new life to well-loved clothing using basic darning and mending techniques! Students can bring some of their own clothes to darn and mend using tools and supplies provided by instructor Riley Kleve. Students will learn to select materials, use various tools, and care for mended and darned clothing in class. Students will leave with new techniques for beautiful mends that add color, pattern, and durability to their clothing. Additional information: Advanced registration required. A $6 materials fee is payable to the instructor and covers all mending materials and tools used in class. Students may also purchase a darning disc to take home for an additional $20. Prerequisites: Skill level: Previous hand sewing experience will allow students to make the most progress in class, but all levels of experience are welcome. Ages: Suitable for ages 16+. A discounted ticket price for students ages 16-17 is available at checkout.
