Alterations and Repair Workshop (monthly)

Altering and mending your clothing is an important part of creating a sustainable wardrobe. Bring in your thrift finds or pieces that have been sitting in your closet awaiting repair. We will be on hand to assist you in anything from mending and patching to simple alterations such as shortening, lengthening, tightening or letting out. Bring in 3-4 garments that need work. How many you complete will depend on project difficulty, fabric type and skill level. This is a fun class where you can build some skills and be inspired by what others are working on. Participants are welcome to stay after class for an additional complimentary hour of open studio to finish up
