About this event
Dates: Oct 5 Instructor: Emma Redmond In this workshop students will learn to mend, patch, and adorn worn cloth with hand-stitching. Students will be introduced to a variety of visible mending techniques, including traditional embroidery stitching and methods, Japanese Boro and Sashiko mending techniques, darning and needle weaving, Kantha (running stitch embroidery), and freeform/decorative stitches. Methods for direct visible mending as well as layering with patches will be explored. Students are encouraged to bring garments or samples in need of mending, as well as beloved scraps and adornments to include in the mending process. -- Our classes are designed to focus on a learned skill rather than a final product. At TAC, our mission is to provide skills and knowledge for a lifetime!
