The central goal of my mending practice is to make mending skills accessible, for it to build community, and to foster kindness in soft gestures. 

One of the most significant deciding factors between repairing or disposing of a garment is skill. Hand sewing skills have become far less commonplace in the past several decades, in direct relation with the rise of the fast fashion industry. As much as I love taking on repair projects, I feel it is my responsibility to disseminate these repair skills to folks who hope to start engaging with this practice as well. 

I offer one-on-one mending lessons, as well as workshops for small groups.  I also run a bi-weekly mending club out of my home. Mending Club is a gathering to celebrate soft, kind, and collective acts of repair!
