Workshop now postponed due to Covid restrictions
sorry!!
A community sewing workshop
REWORK – RECYCLE – REFRESH
You are invited to spend some time on a community project:
Upcycling, Recyclying, Sewing to re-bolster the beautifully tired and very well used bolsters at the Eastwood Community Centre.
DATES:
8th January 2022 10am – 3pm
Even if you don’t want to do the sewing part, there are lots of jobs you can do to help, such as:-
– Unstitching the old ones
– Mixing up and creating new life into stuffing
– Keeping the stitchers refreshed with teas and snacks!
Together we will create some wonderful bolsters to take into our yoga practice for the year ahead..
If you would like to be involved (and I hope you do) whether you wish to be involved on the Saturdays or simply wish to contribute.
We need to start preparing NOW by gathering up materials:-
1) Fabrics for the outer Covers
2) Fabrics for the internal cover of the bolster.
3) Stuffings
Start collecting and put the word out!
Covers for the bolsters could be curtains, heavy fabrics, patchwork selection, dresses, coats, jeans et all.
Inner covers could be cotton sheets, shirts, skirts.
Stuffing could be bedding, pillows, duvets..
