Details

As part of #MendInPublicDay, we're hosting another Street Stitching event.

This is an international event with groups of stitchers gathering on high streets across the UK and the world.

Street Stitching it is not a protest, but a joyful rebellion, mending our clothes right on the doorstep of fast fashion.,

Bring a chair, bring a mending project and join us on Market Street in Manchester to mend your clothes. Feel free to bring friends too - the more the merrier!

Meeting point: H&M

If you can't make this one, but would like to be involved in future or would like to host one in a different Manchester location, drop us an email on hello@stitchedup.coop and we'll be in touch.

Level: Beginner

Instructions

SKILLS: This is not a taught repair session, but you can expect to share skills and ideas with fellow street stitchers.

LEVEL: Anyone is welcome!

BRING: Bring a repair project or two and all the materials you need to complete your repair. If you've forgotten something crucial like scissors or needles, someone will probably be able to lend it to you.
Please also bring a chair or something to sit on, and if you can, a banner / garment with the slogan 'Stitch It Don't Ditch It'.
And lastly, don't forget to dress for the weather! We'll seek cover if it rains, but we will be outside the whole time and it could be chilly.
