Denim Darning (online)

Description:

Grab your sewing machine and a pair of jeans with an unwanted hole-- we're going to fix them! Rebecca will guide you through the process step by step, sharing tips and tricks along the way. Don't let your beloved denim go to waste!

Use your own sewing machine from the comfort of your home and learn the steps to make a long-lasting mend that is inconspicuous. Attendees should have access to a sewing machine that has straight stitch and reverse capabilities. Best for sewists of intermediate, medium, and advanced experience. We will not be going over how to use a sewing machine-- make sure your machine is ready to go at the beginning of the workshop.
