Join us to craft a sustainable future in our innovative upcycling workshop that explores using scrap textiles to create Upcycled Fabric Baskets. We’ll use salvaged ropes, scrap fabrics and old clothing, and spend the day meditatively coiling and stitching our vessels. We’ll wrap and stitch as we go using strips of salvaged fabric. As our baskets start to take shape we’ll look at how to control the width and angle of the walls to create your choice of bowl or basket. Curate your own colour palette, in subtle matching hues or bright contrast to create a simple and sustainable vessel for your home – perfect for storing your craft materials, or to start a scrap collection to make your next basket with! We’ll work on domestic scale vessels within the workshop, but once you have mastered the technique you can go on to create more ambitious projects at home, such as rugs and wall hangings!
We actively encourage up-cycling and re-use within our workshops, and this class is specifically designed to tackle the increasing global environmental problem of textile waste. Please bring along any old garments so that we can make good use of them, creating beautiful and useful new objects from old, and rescue perfectly useful textiles from landfill. If you happen to be a climber, this is also a great way to re-use your retired ropes!
No previous sewing or weaving experience is necessary. Up-cycling is for everyone!
