Overview

Give your garments an extra lease of life!

Did you know that in the UK an item of clothing is only worn 7-10 times, with a whopping 40% ending up in land fill?

Join Jane Creighton, textiles and crafting expert, as she guides us through the process of making distinctive 'visible' repairs, giving our clothing an extra lease of life!

Please bring along an item of clothing which is in need of an update (jeans or a T-shirt are good). We will be working with holes, hems, rips and tears, but anything goes!

Suitable for beginners and experts alike.

Age 18+.
