Mindful Mending with the Refugee Collective & Revision Goods

Whether it's a small tear, a worn-out hem, or simply a favorite piece of clothing that needs a little love, mending allows us to slow down, reconnect with our garments, and practice patience. It's not just about fixing what’s broken—it’s about honoring the history of the clothes we wear, expressing our creativity, and reducing waste by extending the life of what we already own.

This hands-on workshop introduces you to a variety of mending techniques, from simple patching to intricate decorative stitches. Each method is designed to enhance your clothing, making repairs a chance to add unique, personal touches.

Whether you're mending out of necessity or simply to breathe new life into your wardrobe, you’ll find inspiration in the art of mindful mending. (you are welcome to bring a personal garment to mend)

This project is supported in part by the City of Austin Economic Development Department.
