Our visible mending circle is now a regular fixture on the BTQ calendar.
Meet • Other members of Bristol’s Textile Community
Make • New Contacts, Share Skills and start New Projects
Mend • Bring a beloved piece of clothing to mend (*no experience needed, we can help each other)
We continually meet new members of the textile community and we would love to find a way to join up the dots and create a true network for different skills so people can share their knowledge, help each other and collaborate and what better way to do that than by sitting round a table, sewing, chatting a having a drink!
A regular textile get together and mending circle. . . An informal gathering and opportunity for Bring clothes to mend with your sewing bits and bobs if you have, there will be people on hand to offer guidance and advice and we will provide extra resources, needles, yarn, thread and fabric scraps to help you mend your loved clothes
Tea and coffee and biscuits provided, feel free to bring drinks and/or nibbles to share…
