SUMMARY:STUDIO 24: Internal Patches: Stitches and Reverse Applique for Woven Fabric like Denim with Katrina Rodabaugh
DESCRIPTION:Learn the magic of internal patches and why they are so 
 versatile and highly functional for repairing woven fabrics like denim. A 
 simple internal patch on the knee\, upper thighs\, or collar can add beauty 
 and durability to favorite textiles. Internal patches can be highly visible 
 or not-so-visible\, depending on the damage and personal preference. 
 We’ll cover useful knots\, stitches\, and design elements while focusing 
 on internal patches that often create reverse applique. The opportunities 
 are endless with this simple\, savvy repair. Please bring one clean textile 
 to mend that’s made from woven fabric like denim\, cotton\, linen\, 
 flannel\, or canvas—no sweaters or knits\, please\, we’ll cover those 
 techniques in darning classes. (If you’d like a less visible repair\, 
 bring a patch that matches the content\, color\, and weight of your 
 textile. A limited selection of patches will be provided.)\n\n\nThis 
 Maker-In-Residence program is made possible with funding from the Boulder 
 Library Foundation. The Foundation organizes local philanthropic support 
 for innovation\, capital improvements\, creativity\, and expanded outreach 
 and literacy for Boulder's Libraries. \n\n \n\n\nJoin award-winning artist 
 and best-selling author\, Katrina Rodabaugh\, for in-person mending 
 workshops with the Boulder Public Library. Katrina is the author of Mending 
 Matters (Abrams\, 2018) and Make Thrift Mend (Abrams\, 2021)—joyful and 
 practical guides to mending and slow fashion. Visible mending is a series 
 of hand-sewing techniques that combine patches\, stitches\, weavings\, and 
 design elements to make beautiful\, long-lasting repairs. The classes will 
 consider the creative opportunity in mending woven and knit fabrics through 
 careful consideration of materials\, design\, and stitching techniques. All 
 mending will focus on hand-sewing woven fabrics like denim\, linen\, 
 cotton\, and silk or knit fabrics like sweaters\, socks\, gloves\, hats\, 
 etc. Mending is a wonderful way to practice hand-stitching and 
 sustainability by extending the life of our textiles. Simple stitches 
 transform torn or distressed garments and homewares through thoughtful 
 repairs.
