Alterations & Mending
Community Stitches is a free, pay-what-you-can, barter-friendly alterations and mending project rooted in mutual aid. My goal is to extend the life of clothing through repair, care, and skill — including practical alterations for fit, comfort, and accessibility prioritizing — accessibility, sustainability, and community over profit.

My Story
garments saved
years of experience
happy clients
Community Stitches grew out of a simple belief: clothing should fit people’s lives, not the other way around. After years of sewing, altering, and mending—often for friends, community members, and myself—I saw how inaccessible basic clothing alterations and repairs can be, especially for people navigating tight budgets, changing bodies, or systems that don’t account for care. This project exists to make alterations and mending feel normal, shared, and accessible again.
Community Stitches was established January 2026
