Learn to mend and save clothes

Time to spring clean your wardrobe into save or donate piles! Discover how to hem, attach buttons, fix seams, patch rips or tears.

Learn hand sewing with a focus on visible mending. Join Ketakii and Shaye from ShayeKet Productions to learn about fashion waste, mending and repair, and why it’s important to build these skills back into our communities. 

Enjoy breaking into groups with similar items to begin the guided repair process. 

Take home a little first aid patch kit of adhesive patches, needles, threads, snips and a mini-mending zine with instructions.

Supported by Libraries and council’s Waste Education team for the Garage Sale Trail.
