Visible Mending | Saturday, February 28 - 1:00pm - 3:00pm
CLASS DETAILS
Visible Mending is a creative way to extend the life of your clothing and household items while embellishing them for a unique look. We will cover decorative embroidery over stains or patches, needle felting for woolens, and woven patches using Speedweve looms. After this class, you'll look at holes and stains as opportunities rather than tragedies!
