Are you looking to reduce textile waste, save money AND add a unique touch to your wardrobe? Join us for our "Sew Sustainable" series, a summer sewing workshop series on creative ways to repair textiles and help fight fast fashion!   
In these workshops we will focus on hand-sewing techniques you can use to not only mend holes, hide stains or reinforce worn fabric in your clothes, but you can also add unique flair to your wardrobe to make a wearable work of art!  
No materials are required to attend, but participants are highly encouraged to bring personal clothing items that they would like to repair and/or personalize such as jeans, sweaters, jackets, skirts, etc. All other sewing notions will be provided by the instructors.
