This workshop focuses on the simple, useful, utilitarian stitches that will make repairing items in your wardrobe entirely within your skill set. It only takes a needle, thread, sharp snips and know-how to save time and money by mending things yourself. Additionally, we will touch on approaches to “visible mending,” a DIY movement that celebrates the handmade and shines a light on sustainability and the beauty of well-loved textiles. \u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExperience Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e All experience levels welcome\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAge appropriate: \u003c\/strong\u003eTeens and Adults 16+\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLocation: \u003c\/strong\u003eEmpire Make Space 168 1\/2 Ottawa St. N\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstructor: Johanna Masko\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Empire Make Space","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45525288059079,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/3514\/7097\/files\/Screenshot_2025-03-01_at_7.44.36_PM.png?v=1740876621"},{"product_id":"quilt-coat-up-cycle-with-liz-simpson-4-thursdays-november-6-13-20-27th","title":"Quilt Coat Up-Cycle, with Liz Simpson (4 Thursdays November 6, 13, 20, 27th)","description":"\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPCYCLED \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQUILT COAT\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWith Liz Simpson\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDATE: 4 Thursdays, STARTING November 6th, 13th, 20th, 27th\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTIME: 6pm - 8:30pm (4 sessions x 2.5hrs = 10 hours)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBreathe new life into worn quilts and thrifted blankets by making SWS's \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/spaghettiwesternsewing.com\/products\/rue-quilt-coat\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"\u003eRue Quilt Coat \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e in our Upcycled Quilt Coat workshop!

For a 45\" waist, with a 44\", more narrow fabric, with extra full ruffles you will need approx 5m of fabric. When buying fabric remember that a narrow fabric like quilting cotton will increase your requirements, and if you want a very full ruffle you should increase your fabric as well. You will require 2 x spools of matching thread and waistband elastic 1\"-2\" wide in your waist size (available in store), 1m = 40\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003ePlease purchase in advance and bring fabric pre-washed.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eLOCATION: Empire Make Space 168 1\/2 Ottawa St. N\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkill Level: Adventurous Beginner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAge Appropriate: 16+\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstructor: Ariane Clark\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e(participants can come in anytime during business hours to complete any unfinished projects or homework)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Empire Make Space","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45853287743687,"sku":null,"price":125.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0275\/3514\/7097\/files\/81EznSQaIdL._AC_UY1000.jpg?v=1763868157"},{"product_id":"rectangle-top","title":"Rectangle top by Sewing Therapy, with Liz Simpson (Mondays April 13th and 20th, 6-9pm)","description":"\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"caret-color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003eThe Rectangle Top\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e A completely customizable beginner top by\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sewingtherapy.net\" title=\"Meet Sara\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e Sara of Sewing Therapy\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDATES:  \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"caret-color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003eMondays\u003c\/span\u003e January 12th and 19th  \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eTime: (6-9pm x two days, 6 hours) \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/twooninefabric.ca\/products\/pdf-rectangle-top-pattern-sewing-therapy\" title=\"Rectangle Top\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Rectangle Top\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e is a playful, beginner-friendly pattern built from the simplest of shapes—rectangles!

It offers two ways of sewing the waistband. The first way is better for light-to midweight fabrics, and if you like the look of topstitching. The second method is for mid-to heavyweight fabrics, or if you like a clean, more traditional trouser waistband. View A has pleats in front, View B has a flat front. This pattern will teach you some fun techniques including:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- An easy zipper fly\u003cbr\u003e- Your choice of top-stitched or clean-finish waistband\u003cbr\u003e- A special technique to keep the pleats folded\u003cbr\u003e- In-seam pockets\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFABRIC RECOMMENDATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese trousers will have a completely different look depending on the fabric you choose, but I do recommend something with a good drape and also something that doesn’t grow as you work with it or wear it. A light, drapey fabric will look lovely and flowy. A mid-weight cotton\/linen will look so relaxed and cool. Or you can choose a mid-to heavyweight for a chic winter pant. You won’t need pocket lining fabric or pocket facing if using lightweight fabric, in that case you can use your main fabric. \u003cbr\u003e(Rayon\/Tencel\/Lyocell twill, challis or crepe, Linen, Linen blend, Cotton, light to heavy Wool, Corduroy, Denim, Silk, Satin)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Zipper\u003cbr\u003e- Button (around 3\/4” in diameter) (28-36 Ligne)\u003cbr\u003e- Light woven interfacing\u003cbr\u003e- Double fold bias tape the length of your waist ONLY if using thick material or making the clean waistband construction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVIEW A features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHigh-waisted\u003cbr\u003eFull-length pant leg\u003cbr\u003eCurved waistband\u003cbr\u003eZipper fly\u003cbr\u003eIn-seam side pockets that connect to Center Front\u003cbr\u003eFitted by waist, loose hip and very loose thighs\u003cbr\u003eOptional top-stitching\u003cbr\u003eBelt loops\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVIEW B features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSame as View A except for a flat front, no pleats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClick here to see how other people have sewn this pattern! https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/explore\/tags\/proteapants\/\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExperience Level: \u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e \u003cb\u003eLevel 5 - Advanced Garment,\u003c\/b\u003e have made multiple garments and feel confident using a variety of skills: top stitching, bias binding, understitching, and have worked with a variety of fabrics, knits, wovens, slinky fabrics.
