Learn how mending textiles can enhance their beauty with Rose Sinclair
This workshop will look at how we can enhance things we mend by considering how the repair might beautify them.
Rose will use a range of techniques that can be applied to enhance and repair almost any textile object.
A kit and instructions will be provided to support your darning and to participate all you need is a garment in need of repair which you would like to 'makeover'.
Rose is a Lecturer in Design Education at Goldsmiths. She is interested in the ways in which women’s textile ‘clubs’ (for sewing, mending, knitting together) have been a catalyst for the exchange of stories and for social and economic change.
