Patch It Up: An Embroidered Upcycling Project
Thursday April 9, 2026 3:30pm - 5:30pm PDT

**Bring clothes, bags, hats, or anything you want to customize. Non stretchy natural fabric works best (canvas, cotton, denim, etc.)**

Got a hole in your favorite jacket? Is there an unsightly stain on your jeans? Or are you just bored of that plain t-shirt? Breathe new life into your old clothes and accessories with embroidery! Pick from an assortment of water soluble templates (or draw your own design), grab some thread, and get to stitching either directly onto your garment or on a patch for you to sew on later. This class is suitable for all skill levels. There will be personalized guidance on what stitches will work best to realize your vision with plenty of space to be creative and have fun!
