Practical Mending @ Duke Arts Create

  • Duke Annex Durham, NC 27704 (map)

Practical Mending:

In this workshop, we will cover basic hand sewing techniques used for mending. We will look at mending projects you bring in, or practice practical stitches on a swatch. Bring 1-2 mending projects you would like to ask questions about and get started on- be sure to bring any supplies you specifically need like zippers, buttons, matching thread or fabric for patching, etc. Optional $8 supply. If you are just getting started with a project and need some encouragement and time set aside to fix a beloved garment or textile item like bags or pillows, this workshop is for you.

This workshop is closed to the public. This workshop is free to Duke students, staff and employees.

Registration link coming soon.
