- **Event Description**: Stitch it, don't ditch it!

Have you got a favourite top with a hole or a pair of jeans that need some love? Instead of sending it to landfill, give it a creative second life!

As part of Ecofest 2026, we're excited to bring you this hands-on Visible Mending Workshop. You’ll learn various ways to repair and revamp your clothes using patching and embroidery techniques. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned stitcher, you’ll leave with the skills (and confidence!) to turn wear and tear into wearable art.

What to bring: clothes to mend, assorted scraps of fabric, hand-sewing needles, threads e.g. cotton, sashiko/embroidery thread. 

Don’t worry, we will provide extra threads and fabrics if you don’t have any in your craft stash.

Bring along a well-loved item and discover the joy of slow fashion and sustainable style.

Maximum number of participants 10.
