Fast fashion is out, and visible mending is in. Head over to the Cedarbrae Library in Scarborough for a hands-on Mending & Embroidery session dedicated to giving your favorite, well-worn garments a stylish refresh. Whether you are dealing with a torn hem, worn-out elbows, or just want to add custom embroidered flair to a plain jacket, this drop-in meetup provides the space, basic supplies, and community know-how to help.

What to Expect This is a casual, drop-in style gathering rather than a rigid class. Bring along your own clothing items in need of some TLC. Resources, needles, thread, and foundational tools will be on hand to help you practice sustainable fashion techniques.

Location & Getting There Located at 545 Markham Road inside the Cedarbrae branch, the library is easily reached via local TTC bus routes. It's a fantastic, low-stakes way to spend a Saturday afternoon learning a practical skill that helps the planet.
