"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!"

Lia PasI got myself a speedweve #darning loom! I probably could have chosen an easier #mending project than a delicate cashmere blend scarf to try it out on but I’m pretty pleased with how it turned out. I still need to work on making neater edges but that’s just practice. #VisibleMending

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.

PineconeSewing is one of the cheapest and most accessible ways to repair things, yet it is often overlooked. This is probably due to centuries of patriarchy.

Séléné mweziComme promis @claire_ananos , voici la photo de mon manteau. Ce manteau a été acheté un peu trop petit. Je n'arrivais à fermé que les premiers boutons. Avec cette insertion de triangle, je peux fermer tout les boutons.

It could be full time job mending the holes Kona chews into fabrics. It's a good thing she's so sweet!
This required a patch on the inside, so it wouldn't catch on things being shoved into the pocket, and one on the outside, where it wouldn't be ugly.
