The Morning Mend

 
Do you have a favorite piece of clothing that needs a little TLC?  Do you need help mending something you know has a little more life left in it?  If yes, this is the workshop for you. 
On Saturday, December 21st from 10:30am to 12 pm, stop by the Makerspace of the Medway Public Library and we will help you mend your special item.  
We have all of the tools you will need (sewing machines, needles, threads, fabrics and more). 
With a little bit of effort, the life of your clothing can be extended. Clothes are worth saving and keeping out of the landfill!
