We all have them:
-the shirts/jeans/moth eaten sweaters, or dresses that just need to be mended or edited in some way to make them wearable, work for us, or fit again.
This class is for that pile.
Actually, it’s even better than that, this class will teach you how to take a tear, a rip, or a flaw and turn it into the thing you love the most.
We’ll learn how to paint-with-thread. From Japanese mending techniques, to paint-like embroidery including beading and subtle repairs, we’ll mend & create beauty through fiber together.
We’ll also go over some gentle tailoring techniques to adapt pieces to your style and your body’s needs.
