MASTER Sustainable Urban Living Workshops 2025 (2)_oytta5wz.png

Held alongside the vibrant Parnell Farmers’ Market, these sessions offer a warm, welcoming space to gather over morning tea. It’s a lovely opportunity to enjoy a slow, relaxed morning while learning, sharing, and connecting with others in our community.

This Decorative Repair workshop will take you a little deeper into the art of hand mending. Learn decorative mending techniques, bring an item you would like expert advice on and be shown how to mend. Learn the possibilities of repair and reinvention. 

You’re warmly invited to continue — or begin! — your journey into mindful, creative mending.

Learn how to:

  • Hand-sew mending stitches
  • Look more closely at detail and texture
  • Refine your ideas with thoughtful composition

This workshop is all about slowing down, seeing more, and letting your textile work reflect your personality and creativity.

Learn decorative mending techniques, bring an item you would like expert advice on, and be shown how to mend.
