Talk: Why Mending is Important with Remake

Overproduction, overconsumption, and waste are a huge problem within the fashion industry, with consumers throwing away an average of 70 pounds (of clothing and shoes) annually. This problem can't be solved overnight, but we can all take part in reducing our impact; lengthening the lives of our clothing. 

Join us on August 22nd at 4:00 pm PST / 7:00 pm EST to learn The Importance of Mending with Rebecca Harrison, Founder & Lead Sewist at Old Flame Mending. Throughout the program, we will learn about Rebecca and why she founded Old Flame Mending, about the 10,000+ pieces she has saved, and what it is like to be a professional mender full-time. At the end of the call, we will also have a live mending session combined with a Q&A -- so bring your current projects or pieces you have questions about!
