Adulting 101 - Darn it! How to Repair and Mend Your Clothing By Hand

It’s back! This returning workshop in our Adulting 101 series will focus on the practical side of clothing ownership: repairs. This will be a hands-on workshop, so bring a piece of clothing or that needs mending or altering. We'll cover some basics: threading needles, straight stitching, button sewing, and hole patching. For the more advanced in the group, we'll explore hemming, visible mending, and more. A variety of sewing thread, embroidery thread, buttons, and fabric patches will be available for use.
While this series is crafted with ages 18-30 in mind, all ages are welcome to attend.
Registration isn’t required to attend, but those that register at least one week in advance will a FREE mending kit (needles, thread) to take home. All registrants will receive event reminders. Register here: https://bangorpubliclibrary.libcal.com/event/16034175
About the Series:
Being an adult can be overwhelming. From budgeting to meal planning to seemingly endless loads of laundry, it’s hard to figure it all out–but you don’t have to do it alone. Join us twice a month for Adulting 101, where we’ll talk about finances, mending clothes, meal planning on a budget, and so much more. These workshops are designed to help you learn the skills we weren’t taught in school. While this series is crafted with ages 18-30 in mind, all ages are welcome to attend.
Registration isn’t required to attend, but those that register will receive email reminders about the event and in some workshops, only registered participants will be guaranteed supplies to support their new skill.
