In this workshop, we’ll learn a little bit about the history of mending and repairing clothes in Japan, and will complete a basic patch using scraps of traditional Japanese fabric. Students will then learn basic hand sewing techniques and how to apply them to attach their patch to create a beautiful \u0026amp; functional repair that can be applied to damaged clothes of any kind. Each student will leave with a sample of repaired fabric that they can then take home and apply to worn clothing using the techniques learned in class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e________________________________\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eIn this class you'll learn:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBasic hand sewing, including how to thread a needle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to perform a “running stitch”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to perform a “back stitch\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to mend holes and create patches in the Boro technique\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA brief history of Japanese mending\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrerequisite Skills:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNone, beginner friendly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e________________________________\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Instructor:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/brittany_ro5e\" title=\"Brittany Rose on Instagram\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBrittany Rose\u003c\/a\u003e has been cosplaying since 2006, and the hobby inspired her to go to school for professional theatrical costuming.
