Repair, Renew, Reuse: Sashiko as visible mending

Be inspired to give clothes a new purpose, whether by patching a well-loved pair of jeans or renewing a favourite T-shirt. As part of the movement against throwaway culture and fast fashion, learn how to pick up a needle and discover the joy and techniques of Sashiko- the ancient Japanese craft of visible mending.

Bring along a favourite item to repair, or simply come along and get inspired!

Led by Kat Brotheridge from Northumbria University.
