A Stitch in Time - Basic Hand Sewing and Mending Workshop

Learn the basic skills of hand sewing and mending to extend the life of clothing.

This workshop is suitable for beginners.

Do you have clothing at home with missing buttons, a visible tear, or a hem or seam that’s come apart but don’t have the confidence to do a simple repair?

Join Bronwyn Davies at the sustainable reuse enterprise Trashy, Penrith, and gain hand sewing and mending skills that can be applied to various clothing and other textiles suffering from general wear and tear. 

Materials will be provided to teach the techniques, and if time allows, facilitators may assist with items brought from home that need repairing.
