Got a favourite piece of clothing you want to learn how to mend yourself? Bring it along and rediscover the joy of a forgotten essential skill.

Join the Fixing Fairies for a relaxed, social evening of connection, mending, sewing, stitching and shared know-how.

Beginner-friendly and no judgement - this is a space where everyone’s welcome. Learn how to fix the holes in your socks, repair a zip, patch up a knee hole or resew a loose button - all in a friendly space where we support each other and share different skills.

You’ll walk away feeling inspired and a little more confident in making repairs yourself (and maybe even inspiring others down the track).

Bring along your own supplies like needles, thread, patches, buttons or zips, and work at your own pace with the support of our fixing fairies.

We’ll be set up in the cosy Rhyme x Reason tap room, the perfect spot to enjoy a drink, swap tips and connect with others who care about keeping old skills - and good clothes - alive.

This is a free event, please RSVP so we can keep an eye on numbers.
