SUMMARY:The Art of Mending: Manifold Selves in Fabric
DESCRIPTION:Reconnect with your creativity\, reflect on the many parts of who you are through your own patch pattern\, and learn the basics of sewing machines\, while being intentional with the material and design – all in a relaxed\, collaborative space. No experience needed\, just come ready to create and connect. \nWe’ll begin with a quick demo on pattern design\, then move into guided\, hands-on time to design and make your patch. You’ll also have a chance to learn how to use a sewing machine\, so you can get fancy with your patterns. A curated selection of sustainably sourced fabrics and materials will be available so you can focus on bringing your idea to life. \nBring a piece of clothing or fabric that has a special meaning to you – or one that’s ready for a new story. If you’d rather start fresh\, plain tote bags will also be available. \nSet in a cozy café-creative space\, this workshop is designed to help you slow down\, make something with your hands\, and connect with others. Come solo or with friends\, grab a drink or treat\, settle in\, and leave with a creation that’s fully you. \nSCHEDULE [3 hrs]\n10:30 – 10:40am : Welcome + introductions\n10:40 – 11:00am: Patch pattern intro\n11:00 – 11:30am: Sewing machine basics + open sewing\n11:30 – 01:10am: Patch pattern design\n01:10 – 01:30pm: Show and tell + mingle \n**This will be split into groups for everyone to have enough time to learn and use the sewing machines provided by the local creative nonprofit network. \nThe workshop will be led by Nicole Shen\, a maker at heart who believes creativity and sustainability go hand in hand. Through sewing\, knitting\, crocheting\, and the occasional painting or drawing\, she finds joy in giving new life to old materials\, whether that’s repurposing a forgotten shirt into a tote bag she uses every week or turning fabric scraps into something entirely new. For her\, making things isn’t just a hobby; it’s a way of being intentional about what she creates and consumes.
