Stitches in Time, Wednesday June 20, 12-2pm

Embroidered and repaired textiles embrace the beauty in an object's impermanence and imperfection, making a feature of the repair is an alternative to the art of invisible mending. Drop in to learn Sashiko stitching combined with layers of cloth to breathe new life into your favourite items of clothing. Bring your clothes needing repair, scrap fabric, needles, and some embroidery thread or get a sampler kit for $10.
