After several years of contemplating, I’ve finally altered my Patagonia jacket’s sleeves (which were too long and annoying) to fit me perfectly. The hardest part was undoing and removing the binding tape cloth from the sleeves. Now I will love wearing this well-loved jacket even more!

#OakPark Saturday, April 11, 2026 - Oak Park Fix-It Cafe
Every 2nd Saturday/mo @ 11am-2pm
at Community Shop Class, 3818 Stockton Blvd
(turn into parking lot behind between Community Shop Class and Luigi’s)
"Neighbors sharing with neighbors, since 2017.
#Bicycles. #Clothes. #Lamps. Tools. #SmallAppliances. #KnifeSharpening. Computer Consultation
(Almost) Anything is Fixable.
Oak Park Fix-It Cafe is a group of community members who gather once a month to hang out, help anyone with any needed repairs, and (sometimes) even learn a new skill or two!
Come join your neighbors as we share what we have to fix what we need. Or just come as you are, take a load off, have a cup o’ joe and a cookie, and maybe make some new friends. If you need to just relax with friends, we’re here for that. If you want to get your hands a little dirty, we can help there, too.
This is always FREE, and always for EVERYONE—no matter your housing status, language or background."

11:00AM – 12:30PM
#MilpitasLibrary
160 North Main Street

"Do you have...
...a stuffed animal with the stuffing leaking out?
...a shirt with a missing button?
...a hole you want to patch?
...a stain you want to cover up?
Bring it to the Mend with Friends mending club and let’s fix it together! If you are curious about sewing, we can also introduce beginners to some basic hand-sewing stitches.
No registration is required; bring your own items to mend, project to work on, or practice basic stitches with our fabric scraps! Limited mending supplies for hand sewing and casual instruction are available, but bringing your own favorite tools, extra buttons, fabric scraps, or experience to share is always appreciated.
Children are welcome to accompany their caregiver and learn alongside them.
We meet every month on the second Saturday!"

I've replaced the damaged section of the casing, but only minimal effort to beautify the rough outer edge. The goal here was to make it functional. Although if I had any tape like the rest of the seat back is finished with I might be tempted to do that, too 😂
Not Kona (a cat) this time! A porcupine spent the winter in our kayak and for some reason decided to snack on the seat back cover.
