Got the gear but have no idea? Come along and try Mend & Sip! 🧵🍵

Mend & Sip workshops are more than your average sip and sew session. Come along with your project and get tailored assistance to help you finish your specific mending and alterations. Learning how to tackle a mend or alteration is a valuable life skill that can save your clothes, save you money and reduce your impact on the environment! 

THINGS YOU MIGHT LIKE TO WORK ON:

  • swap out a set of buttons;
  • hem a skirt, dress or pair of pants;
  • take something in that loose in all the wrong places;
  • repair that hole that seems to get bigger with every use;
  • an upcycle project that you've dreamt up;
  • finishing off making a garment or item that you started and gave up on etc.

Let's me help you through your projects so you can get back to wearing and loving your faithful wardrobe.

SKILL LEVEL:

This alterations and mending workshop is absolutely ideal for adult beginner sewers who have some basic knowledge of using a sewing machine but lack the confidence or know-how to get started with making a change to your clothes. Feel free to book two spots and bring your partner, a friend or capable kiddo along with you.

In this friendly, supportive, slow-sewing workshop, Eliza will use her 25 years of sewing experience to guide you through your projects so that you not only get them done but learn how to tackle the job for future projects as well.

WHAT TO BRING:

  • the sewing machine that you would like to practice with (optional).
  • other tools that you would like to practice with (optional).
  • your clothing/items that need repair or alteration.
  • haberdashery that you think you'll need for your repairs (e.g. buttons, bias binding, patches, interfacing etc.).
  • hard or soft drinks of your choice (if preferred over tea/coffee provided).

WHAT IS PROVIDED:

  • tea, coffee, sweet treats.
  • cutting area.
  • sewing machines and overlocker.
  • tools, some haberdashery.
  • iron and ironing board.
  • fitting area.
  • a supportive environment, friendly face and years of sewing expertise.

WHAT YOU'LL LEAVE WITH:

  • a set of saved clothes and items that you love.
  • a sense of achievement.
  • maybe a new sewing friend.

DETAILS:

2-6 Molloy Street, Bulli.

Held in the inspiring main gallery at Timbermill Studios. The Timbermill Cafe will be open for purchases until 2:00 pm. Onsite and street parking available.
