3021-Visible Mending with Woven Mends
Melissa Galbraith
MCreativeJ
Does your knitwear or denim have a hole in it? Learn how to patch that hole with visible mending.
In this two and a half hour, hands-on workshop with fiber artist and author Melissa Galbraith of MCreativeJ, you’ll learn two types of darning mends: needle weaving and honeycomb to patch a hole.
During class, you’ll learn how to get started with visible mending, different threads and materials to use, and how to mend your specific garment. Mends can be made to look like decorative motifs or matched to the garment.
You can bring a garment to class to mend or practice on sample denim. Knitwear and denim are recommended for this workshop. All other materials are provided.
