Come turn a tired pair of jeans—or a beloved-but-busted jacket—into a walking piece of art. In this four-week workshop, we’ll transform worn clothing into expressive, hand-stitched statements using visible mending, appliqué, and thoughtful design choices.

Each session begins with a live demonstration—sashiko mending techniques, layered appliqué, or small freehand motifs—and then opens into guided studio time where you’ll apply what you’ve learned to your own garment. From gridded “woven” mends to stitched stars or appliquéd fruit, you’ll learn how to build visual rhythm and texture through slow, intentional handwork.

Whether you’re mending to extend the life of a favorite piece or building something bold and wearable from the ground up, this is a space for play, experimentation, and celebration. Jess brings examples from her own collection to spark ideas, and will support each student in making something that feels uniquely theirs.

Bring your own pants or jacket to work on. All other materials (thread, transfers, patches, pens, needles) are included.

Tuesday nights, August 12 – September 2 | 6:00–8:30 PM
