Mending, Darning, and Patches - AntFarm Series - June 24th

$45.00

Don’t throw it out! Fix it! Bring those worn out pants, those holy sweaters, and exhausted socks. Mending is not only sustainable, it’s satisfying and offers the chance for personal expression through the care of your garments.

In this half day class students will learn to darn knits, apply patches, and mend in a decorative and structurally supportive way.

Materials will be included such as yarn, thread, needles, and scrap fabric. Students are encouraged to bring their own patches and fabrics if they want something to match a special way. Bringing personal needles and pins can also be helpful, but is not required. One sewing machine will also be present and available for use.

This class is three hours long, and is offered as a morning and afternoon session.
