Hi! I’m Aja, from Mending with Aja. When I am not writing, I teach sewing workshops.
Want to learn how to make a bag? Want to fix some shirts? Need to sew buttons on a blazer for an upcoming job interview? Want to turn an old pair of jeans into a skirt? Make an apron to cook in? We can do it all.
I focus on sustainable materials, upcycling, encouragement, curiosity, and patience based on hands on learning. Sewing and mending is more than keeping clothes well and looking your best. It is also a small way to make a big impact for a better environment through repurposing clothes and fabrics instead of throwing them away.
Free Workshops happen for all skill levels once a month at Kensington Neighborhood Library. Updated dates are always posted here as they are available.
Need a more in depth experience? Reasonable prices, groups welcome, option to bring your own materials. I can come out to your location or events as well. Get offline and learn a new skill, or get back into a sewing habit. All levels and abilities welcome. Fill out the form below!
Want to donate materials? Volunteer for a workshop to share your sewing skills? You can fill out the form below as well.
