Zero Waste Jeans Workshop
Event description
Over this two session workshop (Thursdays Oct 30 and Nov 6), we take one pair of jeans (plus some extra textile waste) and make 4 different items, leaving no waste! We'll make:
A tool or utility belt (for gardening, festivals, markets etc)
A draft stopper
A denim pot
A small pyramid purse
Using all the elements of the jeans, we'll teach different deconstruction and reconstruction techniques.
All materials are provided, but you are also welcome to bring your own jeans to use.
Basic sewing machine skills are required for this workshop. You can bring your own machine, or use one of ours.
Our workshops: All of our classes and workshops are created using circular economy principles. This means we love using many recycled and reclaimed fabrics and haberdashery items for our projects. We are deeply passionate about diverting textile waste from landfill and we do this through upcycling.
