Attendees will learn how to create a collage of small fabric pieces and turn them into a patch to cover holes, rips, or even permanent stains. Participants can follow a specific pattern or engage their creativity with organic stitches, and are invited (but not required) to bring their own torn items to mend. Join us for this fun, eco-fashion and slow-fashion friendly workshop!
