Join WMRC and Tobi Beckley for a beginners mending workshop hosted by Calico and Ivy!
This workshop is designed to inspire and empower participants to mend their existing wardrobe. Mending is an act of love and Tobi wants to pass on these age-old skills so we can make our texture and shape. It is a joyful launch pad for those wanting to try visible mending with pretty designs for the first time.
