Mending Matters Workshop

Mending clothes and textiles is a mindful act of resistance!

Mending clothes and textiles is a mindful act of resistance.

Learning to mend clothes and textiles has personal, environmental, financial, and creative benefits. Better yet, it’s approachable — anyone can learn how to mend on some level. Join our expressive and visible mending workshop in Melbourne and learn:

  • Visible darning

  • Patching

  • Simple hand-embroidery

Discover how to repair with purpose and style in our hands-on workshop designed to cultivate your creativity and practical skills. This experiential workshop is based at my studio at River Studios in West Melbourne. You will have the opportunity to connect with your creativity, relax your mind, and immerse yourself in the mindful act of mending.

By the end of the session, you will be equipped with simple and effective techniques to continue mending at home and a mended garment or textile.

Get ready to give your wardrobe a sustainable and stylish makeover!

Please bring along a garment/textile with a small hole that requires mending.
