Stich’n’Mend Party

7-10p in Greenpoint, Brooklyn

Our hostess and crafty seamstress, Briana, has a super-cute blog called Hire Me Martha, check her out! Yeah, that’s right, she’s been on Martha’s show.

aaaaand the scoop:

This party is for beginners, for pros who just want a little momentum from a group atmosphere, for anyone (dudes, this means YOU).

Bring your mending pile, your stash of cute fabric scraps or just yourself. Briana will show us how to make a cute, handkerchief apron (an apron made from 4-5 hankies or small scraps of fabric) or you can opt to fix that stack of things shoved in the back of your closet.

Partiers will have access to (and demonstrations/instructions for using) a sewing machine, all the utensils you’ll need for basic sewing and mending (needles, thread, etc), plus free wine and light snacks (made by me!)

COST: $10

Oh drat! I have a class that night. I'm sure it'll be sew much fun! ;)
Maybe you'll do another one soon? I've got lots of mending to be done.
