Mending Pile Meet Up Monday 13th January 2025

Do you have clothes that need a fix – but struggle to find the time, motivation or knowhow to mend them? Join our monthly social Mending Pile Meet Up to transform a chore into a joy with good company, a hot cuppa, some tasty treats and our expert stitchers on hand if you need a little help or advice.

Bring some mending you need to do and any sewing supplies you might like to use – though we’ll have some spares if needed.

Mending Pile Meet ups are suitable for all level of experience. It’s not a class, workshop or repair café (where repairs might be done for you) – instead the focus is on supporting you to do your own clothing and textile repairs, helping each other and sharing our skills together, which is so much more satisfying! The perfect antidote to dark winters nights, you’ll be sew glad you came.

Due to no shows in previous events, there's a small charge to secure your spot and ensure we don't turn people away unnecessarily. This workshop is heavily subsidised by funding from DAERA’s carrier bag levy. You are very welcome to add a donation to help us reach more people with sewing, mending and upcycling skills.
