Old Orchard Beach/Saco Adult Education

Let's mend together! With the instructor and fellow students, we'll share practice and take time out of our busy lives to repair worn clothing. Start off each class with a mini-lesson on a certain mending technique, then break into groups to work on mending projects. Bring an article of clothing (or two) each session that you would like to mend, and learn techniques to help fix them! Supplies will be provided, but please bring a pair of scissors and any specific tools that you would like to use. All levels are welcome, but a familiarity with hand stitching will be helpful.
