Visible Mending with A. Laura Brody • Sunday, January 19 • 2-3:30 PM
Let’s mend the world instead of trashing it.
Visible mending makes repair fun, meditative, and beautiful. We’ll use techniques inspired by classic Japanese Boro and Sashiko hand sewing and turn your worn out clothing into wearable art. This is a great way to keep old clothes out of the landfill, save their memories, and to sew in good company.
Bring items you love that need mending!

Supply your own materials or purchase on site: embroidery floss and needle, patching material, and pins. Instructor provides pins, scissors, and thread conditioner.
Instructor A. Laura Brody has 30 years experience as a costume crafts person, designer, and maker. She's made costumes for the Black Eyed Peas and Rhianna, among others. She has worked for Netflix, the LA Opera, Disney and Nickelodeon TV, and many specialty costume houses. Her relaxed, encouraging, and adventurous approach to teaching make her courses accessible and fun.
