Learn the basics of mending on your own clothing by hand! If you've always wanted to learn how to sew on a button, sew up a seam, patch a hole, or repair small tears in a garment, we welcome you to join us at the Refillery Pgh in Squirrel Hill. Ages 18+
Old Flame Mending will provide all sewing materials, but participants should bring garments that are in need of mending. Recommended items: clothes with a loose or missing button / hook + eye, items that have a small tear or items that have a small hole (holes should be smaller than a quarter).
Lightweight woven fabrics and lightweight- heavyweight knits recommended. Not recommended: denim, leather, heavy duty fabrics, sweaters, complex repairs like zipper replacement, etc.
With admission, participants will receive a sewing kit to take home, which will include scissors, a variety of needles, 1 spool of thread, and a thimble.
