Join us at Cloth + Home in Evanston, IL on Saturday, September 30th from 10:30am-1pm for a natural mending workshop and private shopping event. Beverages and light bites will be available.
During the workshop, we will run participants through the basics of mending with natural materials, including running, whip, and sashiko-inspired stitching techniques and how to sew on a button. No prior sewing experience is required.
Admission to the workshop is $50, which includes a custom mending kit, or $95, which includes the mending kit and a blank version of our undyed, 100% organic cotton Classic Tee at a special discounted price. Both RSVP options are 15% off through Friday, September 22nd at 11:59pm CST.
We will supply undyed organic cotton fabric scraps for all participants.
The custom mending kit includes:
Two steel sashiko needles made in Japan
