Description
Looking for a way to keep your kids engaged on their day off that doesn’t involve screens?
Spend an afternoon feeding your creativity with an intro to all things mending—from threading a needle to patching your favorite clothes, bags, plushies, and more. Learn the patchwork mending basics, including the running stitch and whip stitch, with the opportunity for guidance of more advanced stitches for more experienced students. You provide the things to mend, and we’ll provide the materials, demo, and physical examples and diagrams to follow along.
