About this Event
Do you have a “wish” pile of clothing? Those perfectly fitting jeans that are too long, your favorite cardigan that has a hole in it, that cute romper that only works after some carefully placed safety pins? It's time to stop dreaming about your fantasy outfits and get them into your working wardrobe.
Come and learn a new skill or borrow some basic tools so you can get your favorite clothes back in rotation, and get it done while sipping bubbly and socializing! Some machines, needles, fabric scraps, and thread will be available to borrow but if you can, please bring your own scissors, thread, sewing needles, or whatever you will need to work on your project. Informal sewing guidance will be provided by your hosts, expert sewists Jeni Falldine and Sherry Koyama of Harumi K. It's more fun to get your mending done with the right supplies, ideas from others, and a little extra moral support.
Light refreshments will be provided. Hope to see you there!
Suggested donation $10 - $30
