Mending/ Sashiko/ Boro – Emeryville 4-H

Short Description (include whether this will be all online, all in-person, or a combo)	Revive old stuff with fun visible mending techniques. Add patches to your clothing or build entirely new cloth looks based on simple stitches and approaches that have stood the test of time. Student materials: •. bring an old pillow cover, cloth grocery bag or maybe a pair of pants or a jacket that might benefit from a bit of excitement or would be better if the hole was just fixed. –and we can do that…If you don’t have one, I can offer one. • Scissors (prefer fabric scissors or really sharp ones but most will work) • Large eye needles if you have them (I can also supply) • An embroidery hoop of any size can be helpful but not required. I will offer: • Fabric swatches and fun yarn • Large eye needles • Old fabric bag or pillow cover if you need one • A few embroidery hoops or find some as needed
