About the event
Welcome to an exciting adventure in working with your jeans!
Get ready to dive into hemming, repairs, basic alterations, and so much more, bring along your sewing machine and the denim you want to transform; if you have several pairs needing different tweaks, that's fantastic, bring what you have and we'll likely work on a max of three garments, depends what you want to learn and try.
We'll provide thread and fabric for patching, including extra denim; if you have specific colours in mind for threads, decorative fabric or patches, feel free to bring your own favourites. This day will be packed with valuable information, but rest assured, it will be relaxed, creative and informal; breaks will be scheduled as needed to keep you refreshed.
