These sessions will allow participants to explore specific crafts over five two hour sessions. That will cost £175 for 5 weeks.

Mindful Mending – A 5-Week Journey into Textile Repair.
Led by Jo founder of Revive & Revolve -  Join us for a slow and creative exploration of visible and invisible mending through this 5-week mindful textile course. Whether you’re completely new to sewing or looking to deepen your repair skills, this hands-on series will guide you through a range of traditional and modern techniques to restore, revive, and reconnect with your clothes.
Each session invites you to slow down, stitch with intention, and build confidence in caring for your garments:

  • Week 1: Introduction to Sashiko – Learn the beautiful, meditative art of Japanese running stitch
  • Week 2: Introduction to Darning – Master the basics of woven repairs on holes and worn areas
  • Week 3: Invisible Mending – Experiment with freehand embroidery techniques on denim
  • Weeks 4 & 5: Personal Project Work – Apply your new skills to items from your own wardrobe with individual guidance and support

You’ll leave with practical techniques, a repaired item (or several!) and a new appreciation for the stories stitched into your clothes. All materials provided. Just bring yourself – and any clothing you’d like to mend.
