$120.00 per personAbout this experience
A 3 week workshop led by costume maker and artist Lori Ann Kenney.
We can mend in so many ways, but doing it by hand can add beauty and a peacefulness to your day.
Empower yourself and engage in a thoughtful and creative process of
sustainability and renewal.
We will explore various hand sewing methods and techniques to embellish and repair clothing. There will be a demonstration of some basic techniques to start, and then as you sit and stitch, Lori will move through the group, offering suggestions and techniques for your unique mending puzzle.
Equal parts class and community connection, I think you will find this to be a relaxing and creative time.
Bring a favourite piece of clothing that needs repair! Textile scraps
will be provided, or bring your own.
We will include some take-home supplies (needle, thread, and a few scraps to work with!) so you can continue your journey at home!
