Make a Stylish Bag from Old Jeans Workshop

I am a believer of “Let’s use what we have” as we face the problems of environmental waste and resource depletion.

This one day workshop will introduce you to the slow stitching wonder that is therapy of the soul.  You will learn how to make a wonderful bag from what resources you already have that you can complete in a day without any major equipment.  It is easy and quick

In this workshop you will make a stylish bag out of old denim jeans and embellish it ready to take home.

You have the option to line the bag with an old cotton shirt.

Learners to supply their own denim jeans and cotton shirt (either from your own wardrobe or second-hand shop).

There will be some sewing machines available for those who have experience using a sewing machine otherwise needle and thread will be provided for learners to hand sew their bags and embellishments.

  Learners to bring $10 in correct change to pay the tutor directly to cover the costs of the additional items used in making your bag.
