Celebrate creativity and sustainability this Halloween with a day of hands-on mending, community, and fun. Whether you're fixing up your favorite items or adding final touches to your costume, everyone is welcome.

✂️ What to Expect:

Hands-On Mending: Bring your worn-out clothes, costumes, or decorations, and learn how to repair them with expert guidance.

Costume Repairs Welcome: Have a costume that needs a quick fix or some added flair? Bring it along, or work on something new with us!

Expert Tailoring Advice: Meet Barbra from Finnieston Alterations, a skilled tailor with over 15 years of experience, including working with top fashion brands like Alexander McQueen and Ralph Lauren, as well as on-site tailoring for artists like Shania Twain and Rod Stewart.

Refreshments Provided: Enjoy light snacks and drinks while you work. Don’t forget your reusable cup!

No Mending Needed? No worries! We’ll have extra garments and materials for you to work on if you don’t have anything of your own.

👗 Why Mending Matters:

Mending is a way to extend the life of your clothes and costumes, reduce waste, and express creativity. Whether you're experienced or just starting out, we welcome everyone to take part in this global movement towards repair and reuse.

Drop by anytime during the event, and stay for as long as you’d like—whether it’s a quick repair or a full day of stitching.
