Mending circle and sewing workshop this Thursday! All ages
www.facebook.com...
Auckland Library of Tools in collaboration with Repair Cafe Aotearoa are excited to bring you the third in a series of repair and maintenance workshops every first Thursday of the month at Hackland Makerspace, just behind ALoT!
Thursday August 1 will be a clothes mending circle and workshop, no skills necessary. Come join in the fun of repairing your own clothing with a group of others doing the same. Swap knowledge, tips and tricks, stories, and thread colors with your neighbour while extending the life of your beloved garments, soft toys, bags, and more. Sewing and mending experts will be on hand to help with techniques and give advice. Bring appropriate tools if you have them, or use the tools and sewing machines available in house. There will be nibbles and tea on hand, and contributions of food and beverage are very welcome. The vibe is relaxed, and social! All ages, with a play area for little ones.
Getting here:
Bus stops on Ponsonby Rd (InnerLink, 20, 105, 106, 866), Great North Rd (11T/W, 18, 20, 195), and Karangahape Rd (WX1)
We are also near the northwestern cycleway.
Limited free parking is available next door or on side streets. There is no parking in front of ALoT/Hackland..

Dry cleaners mt Roskill
Hello our fellow neighbors I was hoping someone would know where the old dry cleaners we had up at the lights on dominion road have moved to?? I was out of town and when I came back they were gone .... I had some items that I would really love to get back but if only I new where they moved to or how to get In Touch with the owners to see what they did with our clothes if they closed down or moved elsewhere? Any updates or news about it would be amazing neighbors. Have a great day
