Description: Darning or needle weaving creates a mini loom right on your fabric weaving together a magical fresh new material. This technique is great for covering stains, repairing holes, and reinforcing thinning fabrics, and can be used on many different types of fabrics. You will learn the basics of this versatile mending technique, and be guided through mending one of the items you bring. You will receive a supply kit full of my favorite go-to tools & materials including darning needles, thread, embroidery hoop, and a marking tool. You are welcome to bring an article of clothing (denim, canvas, linen, cotton, knit, jersey) to work on or practice the techniques on provided materials. All experience levels are welcome!
