#REUSE #UPCYCLE #UPSEW GARMENT HEMMING WORKSHOP🥳
If you know how to alter garments to fit you can help keep old clothing out of landfills across Aotearoa. You can change your clothing to fit as you change or to fit a new wearer, instead of having to buy new and discarding perfectly usable fabric.
Sam from Stitch-Up-Society will be delivering a hands-on sewing workshop for adults on Tuesday the 1st of October from 7 PM until 9 PM in The Junction Zero Waste Hub Education Room. 🪡🧵🧶 Bring in garments you would like to alter and Sam will teach you how to hem them using a machine or by hand.
Sewing machines will be set up for use...
...THERE WILL BE CHOCOLATE!!!
We recommend you bring your own coloured threading to match the existing colour of your garment. You may not be able to finish your hemming during the workshop but we are sure you will learn the skills and knowledge needed to complete the job on your own at home.
Please park in the public car park in front of the REUSE SHOP (first left as you enter the JUNCTION ZERO WASTE HUB). It will be dark so you can either wait outside the REUSE SHOP for your workshop host to walk you over to the MRF or head straight across to the education room following the path from the car park.
$5 per person is reimbursed as a voucher for the REUSE SHOP.
