Description

This course teaches the quilting technique using a sewing machine. A table runner will be designed and sewn from prepared recycled traditional costume fabrics provided by the course instructor.

Fast fashion and its negative effects on our environment are one of the major issues of our time. Clothes are usually only worn for a short time and then end up in landfill sites. We can change this by treating old clothes as a valuable resource and creating our own personal style with upcycling art.

Basic sewing skills are required for this course.
Workshop leader: Sigrid Artmayr
