Mend It March is upon us, so let's get mending!

For this month's Maker Space Monday, bring your old jeans, hat, jacket, tote bag, anything you want to mend.

We will supply the materials (including a sewing machine, an over locker, embroidery hoops, needles and cottons) as well as some local expertise - but you are also welcome to bring your own sewing kit, embroidery cottons, and fabric off-cuts. 

You will learn about visible and invisible mending and you will be able to fix some of your garments on the night.

To find out more about visible mending, take a look at Kate Sekule's website and book extract

For invisible mending you might be interested in this clip about Kaketsugi restoration (our techniques won't be quite up to this standard, but we do have a few tricks up our sleeve!)
