Mending = Love-extending

Love your clothes a little longer. In this hands-on mending class, you’ll learn the foundational skills to confidently repair the garments you already wear and love. We’ll cover both visible and invisible repairs, talk through how garment construction influences your repair choices, and explore practical tools, tips, and techniques you can use again and again.

This is a beginner-friendly class—no sewing experience needed. Bring a pair of jeans or a woven (non-stretch) shirt to work on during class, and leave with new skills, fresh perspective, and a wardrobe with a little more story to it. 

Supplies are in the drop down menu below. All supplies are 10% off.

Class size is limited to 6 to keep things comfortable (jeans take up space!), so everyone has room to spread out and get individual help.

  • A pair of jeans or a woven (non-stretch) shirt to repair
  • A sashiko-style needle (long, thin, large eye — the ones we carry work great)
  • 1–5 thread colors you’d like to combine (sashiko, embroidery, etc.)Trailhead Acorn embroidery bobbins are a great grab-and-go option. Daruma cotton sashiko cards and Weeks Hand dyed thread are favorites
  • Scissors
  • Optional but helpful: a leather or sashiko thimble

What We’ll Provide

  • Spare jeans (for anyone who wants to attend but doesn’t have an item ready)
  • Denim and woven fabric scraps for patching
  • Stabilizer
  • Marking tools and templates
  • Reference copies of Jeans Genius and Mending Matters (available for purchase)
