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.
we choose to do this because we value the inherent labor and caretaking involved. we do it to embrace ourselves and feel tethered to loved ones in our past. we do it for a more thoughtful and connected future.
