Bring your projects and your crafty self to Darn It All!, a monthly mending bee at the Rockingham Free Public Library, at 65 Westminster Street in Bellows Falls. Darn It All! happens on the first Saturday of every month, from 10am – 1pm. Admission is free and open to everyone of all genders, regardless of whether you live in Rockingham; attendees age 16 and younger must be accompanied by a responsible adult. The library, its meeting space, and restrooms, are all ADA-accessible.

Are you a veteran mender who has piles of books about the art of darning? Have you never threaded a sewing needle in your life? Excellent! People of all skills—or none—are encouraged to attend.

Darn It All! is not only for those repairing their clothes and accessories; it’s also for knitting, sewing, embroidering, cross-stitching, or doing other fiber arts. We also welcome people who prefer to draw or color. Darn It All! is an event for creativity and companionship.

What Darn It All! isn’t is a tailor shop. While we love skill-sharing, and someone may help you if they are able, Darn It All! is strictly do-it-yourself, and you alone are responsible for your repairs. Likewise, we may have sewing tools to share, but it’s best you bring your own.
