Visible Mending for Clothes

  • Canberra Environment Centre Harrison, ACT, 2914 Australia (map)

Visible mending is a wonderful way to reduce your impact on the planet while exploring and expressing your own creativity. In these workshops with artist Michele Grimston, you’ll learn a range of techniques to darn, patch and reinforce old textiles to extend their life and add meaning and beauty to your everyday objects. Participants are encouraged to bring their own garments or household textiles to mend, and to take a relaxed and meditative approach to creating unique mends that reflect their personal style. 

Learn to darn and embroider your woollens and other holey garments to give them a new lease on life after the dreaded moth attacks. We’ll explore a range of different darning and embroidery techniques perfect for covering and reinforcing small holes.
