hello
all hands repair is a mending + custom textiles studio. all hands is a learning space. all hands is your friend.
through this work, i honor textile labor throughout history and culture- the care and touch of countless hands.
this work is slow and intentional. it takes time and costs money. it gives your beloved textiles new life and keeps your stories alive.
i teach and lead workshops about natural dyes + garment mending - but my events are really about caretaking, the emotional connections we make with our garments, the stories they connect us to, the somatic aspects of handwork, + the inherent metaphors for relationship repair to self and others.
i look forward to sewing with you.
alexa yurianna anderson is a textile artist, natural dyer, and teacher working from the olympic peninsula of washington state. she creates place-based art informed by craft tradition. you can see more of her work alexayanderson.studio
