Love Your Clothes Project
Love your Clothes was a project funded by the Community Fund between April and November 2022
We ran a series of FREE workshops, a community mending course, ran party clothes swaps and made video mending tutorials – watch those here
Love Your Clothes: The Party Clothes Exchange Pop up swap
Get yourself some amazing new (to you) clothes while saying no thanks to fast fashion. The Party Clothes Exchange is a zero waste, circular economy project.
We ran three busy swaps over the spring and summer
Love Your Clothes: Community Mending Course
A course held for those who really want to progress their skills and accelerate their impact. Held over six consecutive weekday mornings where participants learnt and improved their clothes mending skills. Starting April 2022.
Learn to patch, darn, mend and up-cycle with the Sew Fab team.
Supportive and inclusive environment
We welcome skill sharing and collaboration and a pro-active attitude. We have now recruited for this course. Thanks for your interest.
At the end of the course we took our skills out into the community and ran pop up mending sessions in Brighton Library and in the main plaza in Brighton Open Market. Sharing our skills, discussing mending and inspiring people to sew.
