TEXTILE ARTS CENTER MENDING BRUNCH

Because I've been increasingly interested in learning about Textiles and how to manipulate them (previously having hand-sewn clothing, printed designs onto clothing, and knitted scarves for everyone on the block), I've been attending as many workshops as possible offered at the Textile Arts Center (Brooklyn, NY). The space is absolutely gorgeous, very open and full of light, with thread and fabric in every color imaginable. This last time I went to the Textile Arts Center was to attend the Fashion Week Mending Brunch hosted by Sewing Rebellion NYC. Mimosas & materials were provided, as well as free classes on how to do everything from dyeing/printing onto clothing, to quilting, to making the coats your mother always buys two sizes too big more fitted (I was able to rescue a few of mine ;) What a great, great way to meet people of all backgrounds. And for now, the granny in me is totally addicted to textiles...
