This is a fun activity in Homerton, London
If you've ever wished you could fix that loose button or mend that small tear yourself, this sewing workshop in Hackney Wick shows you just how achievable these skills are.
We will start by introducing myself and explaining my approach to sewing and upcycling. I'm passionate about sustainability and believe in giving old garments a fresh look.
Throughout the session, you'll work either with your own clothing that needs repair or practice on provided fabric samples while enjoying a complimentary cup of tea or coffee. Your instructor shares their passion for sustainable fashion and upcycling, demonstrating how simple repairs can keep clothes looking fresh and prevent waste. You won't be using sewing machines during the session, with the focus on hand-mending techniques making this a versatile and useful addition to your skillset.
By the end of the workshop, you'll have mastered practical mending techniques that will help you maintain your wardrobe for years to come—a perfect blend of traditional skills and modern sustainability.
