We’re starting a new series of monthly skills workshops, where on one Saturday of every month you’ll be able to learn or develop a new skill for free! Kicking off with a sewing workshop with Stitch Department, who will introduce you to a few different techniques you can use to start making!
This workshop will introduce you to sewing by showing you how to safely use a sewing machine and some different techniques you can use. You will learn how to sew a basic seam, install a zip and make your own pencil case to take home. This workshop is perfect for beginners.
Stitch Department is a local clothing practice that works towards a more sustainable approach to the clothing and textile industry. They host sewing workshops and masterclasses teaching vital skills to encourage repairing, mending and to generally slow fashion down.
Practical info: This opportunity takes place at Stitch Department’s workshop in Ryde, we can help cover your bus fare if needed. To apply, please tell us why you would like to take part.
Opportunity Date & Time: Saturday 9th March, 1.30pm – 3.30pm.
