Visible mending uses thread, embroidery, or patchwork to highlight a repair as art. Learn the basics of sashiko stitching and one-on-one mending techniques to create one-of-a-kind pieces. Repairing clothes instead of discarding them keeps textiles out of landfills, where 92 million tons of garment waste end up annually. Extending garment life by just nine months reduces carbon, waste, and water footprints by 20-30%.
