Clothing repair- Jeans Edition- Newtongrange

20th August 2018 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

Free

BOOK YOUR PLACE

Event will take place in Newtongrange- address will be sent to you after booking.

Join our fabulous clothes mender Kiki and she will show you how to and help you repair your favourite jeans, making them presentable and wearable again, and helping to keep them in use and being dearly loved for a lot lot longer.

You might have developed a ripped knee, a hole worn in the crotch or a frayed hem on your trusty jeans, but the good news is all of these problems can be tackled with a little know how and some dedicated time.

Clothing repair cafe to the rescue!!

Please bring a maximum of 2 pair of jeans for repair.

The repair skills you will learn are transferable, e.g. darning or hole repair can be done equally on a sock or the crotch of jeans. 

N.B. The number of items you will be able to repair will depend on how complicated your repairs are. You might be able to complete 2 projects in the time available, but we’re making no promises!! 🙂

No prior sewing skills needed. All materials will be provided. 

The venue has 3 steps into the entrance so not suited for wheelchair access. Exact address details will be sent prior to the event.

Look forward to seeing you on Thursday 23rd August!
