Visible Mending: Basic Sashiko Stitching

Wide Awake Club Library, 22 N Genesee St, Fillmore, NY

Erin


Learn to mend clothing with a simple hand-stitching technique! Using scrap fabric and a needle and thread, participants will learn how to patch and reinforce holes and tears in garments and make them into unique pieces. All materials will be provided, including a sample to practice the technique; participants are also welcome to bring a garment to mend (e.g., denim pants, canvas pants or shirt, or other non-stretch garment).
