DESCRIPTION This is a hands-on sewing course focused on repair, alteration, and creative transformation. Bring a garment from your own wardrobe that you’d like to alter, mend, or up-cycle, and learn practical and creative techniques to help you breathe new life into your clothes. As well as more typical alteration and mending techniques we will also explore creative ways of re-imagining old and worn out garment by adding textile decoration such as patches or textural coverings using remnant fabrics. This course is perfect for anyone who wants to extend the life of what they already own, whether it’s shortening a pair of pants, reshaping a shirt that no longer fits, patching your favourite worn-in jeans, or reimagining an old garment into something new. Across the sessions you’ll be guided through useful and adaptable methods for altering fit, repairing damage, and creatively up-cycling. You’ll get support with your individual projects while also learning from what others in the group are working on. WHAT'S INCLUDED All sewing machines, tools and equipment. You will also have access to our textile library of fabric offcuts and scraps, in cottons and linens, to use for your remake/repair project. WHAT TO BRING A garment (or a couple) from your own wardrobe that you’d like to alter, mend, or up-cycle. *Places are limited so make sure you book your spot in advance.
