Your favorite shirt met your new puppy? Your Jean jacket has been around the world & needs life support? Sustainable fashion is your thing? Then this workshop is for you- I’ll teach you to thread a needle, tie a knot, & hide the knot. I’ll also teach you how to use a running stitch, blanket stitch, & whip stitch to hold layers of fabric creatively & strategically in place.
“I’m Elizabeth Martin, and my parents modified my clothes a lot when I was little! Sneakers became sandals, jeans were just a phase in the story of summertime cut-offs, & it wouldn’t have been the 70’s if my mom hadn’t appliquéd calico daisies into my chambray shirt! I’m excited to show you how to use a needle, thread, & fabric to mend something for yourself or someone else- Come stitch with me :) “
