Visible Mending Class

Past event
Jun 6, 2024, 6:30 to 8 PM

Visible mending June 6th 6:30 at REclaimED in Poultney (class open to public and members)

This class will teach the skills needed to transform your worn, ripped clothing into practical and wearable pieces of art through the use of creative patchwork, embroidery and darning techniques. Visible mending has been used throughout the centuries to create a little good from an unfortunate mishap to a favorite item of clothing. It has been popularized recently by people like Arnounna Khounnoraj, Tom Van Deijnen and others. Pin looms, darning and patching among other techniques will be introduced during this class. Instructor and the maker space will provide repair materials, just bring your ripped and worn clothes to work on. Ages 8+. If you are interested respond via email heronsllyn@gmail.com.

Class length: 1 hour

Spots : 8

Cost: $20 per person (collected day of class- cash, check or card is fine)

Coming up: If you missed your chance to take one of the Japanese indigo tie dye classes (shibori) this spring (or just had a really great time the first time) I'll be putting on another class on June 27th at 6:30 at the maker space. Feel free to email about that class as well!
