Scrappy Fabric Workshop
Event description
Do you have lots of scraps of woven cotton fabric that you want to keep out of landfill? Come to this workshop and learn two different ways to join all the small pieces together to make a new piece of fabric. Following the workshop you can use your new piece of scrappy fabric to make something.
About the instructor:
Tiffany Westphal and her sister used to run a small business called Adore the Cloth. While her sister made children's clothes under the label Adore the Cloth, Tiffany created things from the textile waste under the label "Adore the Cloth 2nd Cut". Tiffany loves the creative challenge of finding solutions for problems. She's now working as a social worker (solving social problems) but still enjoys sharing a diverse range of textile skills with others.
