Description

Join us on the first Monday of the month at Ealing Project, with your clothes mending pile at Ealing Repair Cafe meet up. We teach you how to patch and darn your clothes and textiles and have guides, sewing equipment, mending books and samples to inspire you. Bring along any clothes that need mending for some helpful suggestions from our volunteers on how to fix your items.

We will also have one sewing machine available to try out. We might have to have timed slots on the machine if we have a high demand for the machine.

We ask for a small donation, £3 for the session to cover costs of equipment and expenses.

** Sewing machine available for fixing seams and suitable mends.

Ealing Repair Cafe: Clothes

Ealing Repair café encourages the mending of clothes and textiles. We want to get more people valuing and wearing their clothes for longer and to move away from fast disposable fashion. We run friendly monthly gatherings around Ealing, giving suggestions, lessons, providing equipment and show examples of repairs done by our community.

If others would like to join us in at our events to repair clothes and other items, please get in touch. We would love to expand our offering.
