St'Itchen'ham Repair Cafe

Bring up to 4 items of clothes that need mending and our volunteers will guide you through the creative and addictive world of mending with techniques such as darning, Swiss darning, Sashiko, crochet, knitting, cotton and stretch fabrics, machine sewing, decorative embroidery, invisible and visible patching.

There will also be sewing machines available to use for suitable mends or to try out, as well as embroidery threads, cotton, material for patching, mending samples and books to inspire you.

Open to everyone

There's no need to book; just drop in.

Please note:

• We ask for a small donation for the session to cover costs of equipment and expenses.
• Depending on how many turn up on the day, our volunteers might only be able to advise on 1 or 2 items and timed slots might be applied to using the sewing machines.

This is a community event run in association with Ealing Repair Cafe.
