More spaces available! Slow Stitched Purse Workshop

Franklin Arts Centre from Franklin Arts Centre

Slow Stitched Purse Workshop
Saturday 2 December
9.30am - 2.30pm

Cost $5 payable at Franklin Arts Centre

Bring cotton fabric from your worn out garments – it’s a great way to use the fabric from old favourites that you just can’t part with. Mix and match with fabrics that others bring, to create a beautiful purse to gift for Christmas or to keep.
Alternatively, bring your worn out garments and mend them with decorative fabrics and stitching.

Oreen will bring a selection of materials from her stash, but participants are invited to bring worn out cotton garments to cut up, or scraps of cotton fabrics, and thread if you have it.

Oreen Lingaiyya is an experienced tutor who loves to share her passion for upcycling textiles and teach others about responsible use and management of textile resources.

BYO lunch or purchase lunch from the onsite café.

Suitable for teens and adults

Places are limited. Booking is essential.

We're talking new year resolutions...

Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.

What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?

What word sums up 2024, neighbours?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....

In one word, how would you define 2024?

We're excited to see what you come up with!
