This workshop focuses on a technique called "darning," a fabric visible mending process that involves re-weaving a portion of fabric by-hand and is facilitated by Haley Clark.

In this workshop you will practice surface darning first on scrap woven fabric, and then use the second part of class to apply what you’ve learned to your own garment. Add new life to a beloved garment by darning tears, weak patches, stains and more. You may elect to make your darned repairs invisible, or embrace re-imaging your garment with an intentionally visible repair. Bring a garment to practice on! The larger the hole the longer it will take to complete. I would recommend to have an item with a hole no bigger than a quarter to start.

This class welcomes beginners to advanced sewists - all it requires is a willingness to learn something new! Types of garments suitable for this type of darning would be medium-weight woven shirts, shorts, pants, jeans, socks, sweaters, t-shirts.

Participants will be provided with a selection of embroidery floss, one hand sewing needle. You are also welcome to bring your own supplies like specific embroidery floss colors, embroidery hoop, thimbles, etc.
