Make & Mend - Beginner Pattern Making & Sewing Alexandra
Advertisement
Don't throw it away – learn to design, make, mend and give your garments a new life.
Turn creativity into capability as you build practical skills, share ideas and connect with others in a welcoming, hands-on workshop. This doesn't necessarily need to be a garment you wish to revamp, for example, it could be other textiles such as a tote bag, cushion covers, curtains, tablecloths, or a quilt.
This workshop runs for 8 weeks on a Friday.
Tutors: Abi Brooke-Miller & Lesley Brown
You are encouraged to bring along your own projects you wish to work on. Bring clothing or textiles you would like to alter, mend or upcycle.
Value what you already have, reduce textile waste and care for your clothing with intention. Learn to design, make and mend and give garments a new life.
Share knowledge, build connections & receive creative inspiration from the tutors.
Please Bring: If you have a sewing machine, bring this with you. There will be some there to use if you don't have one yourself.
