Learn to Sew: Tote Bag Workshop

🧵 Learn to Sew – Make Your Own Tote Bag

Ever wanted to learn how to use a sewing machine? This is the perfect place to start!

Join our friendly volunteers for a relaxed, beginner-friendly workshop where you'll make your own reusable tote bag while learning the basics of sewing. No experience is necessary—we'll guide you through each step at your own pace.

What's included?

🧵 All materials supplied
🪡 Friendly guidance from experienced volunteers
👜 Your very own tote bag to take home
☕ A welcoming community atmosphere

We have sewing machines available to use during the workshop, but you're welcome to bring your own sewing machine if you'd like to become more familiar with using it. Our volunteers will be happy to help you learn on your own machine.

Cost: $5 per person (includes all materials)

This workshop is proudly presented by the Benaraby Repair Help Desk, a volunteer-run community initiative that helps people repair, reuse and learn practical skills. By learning to sew, you'll gain confidence to tackle simple clothing repairs and future sewing projects at home.

Whether you've never touched a sewing machine before or just need a refresher, we'd love to help you discover how rewarding sewing can be.

Places are limited, so bookings are essential.
