Slow Stitched Purse Workshop
Saturday 2 December
9.30am - 2.30pm
Cost $5 payable at Franklin Arts Centre
Bring cotton fabric from your worn out garments – it’s a great way to use the fabric from old favourites that you just can’t part with. Mix and match with fabrics that others bring, to create a beautiful purse to gift for Christmas or to keep.
Alternatively, bring your worn out garments and mend them with decorative fabrics and stitching.
Oreen will bring a selection of materials from her stash, but participants are invited to bring worn out cotton garments to cut up, or scraps of cotton fabrics, and thread if you have it.
Oreen Lingaiyya is an experienced tutor who loves to share her passion for upcycling textiles and teach others about responsible use and management of textile resources.
BYO lunch or purchase lunch from the onsite café.
Suitable for teens and adults
Places are limited. Booking is essential.

-
59.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
16.1% ... It is complicated

Illegal dumping
This is awful how people just disregard bylaws. dump their rubbish in parks and waterways to try get away with having to pay dumping costs at the rubbish dumps and transfer stations. This also can cause flooding again due to blocking the grate of the culvert in Princes street. No thought for neighbours or damage that can be caused by their actions.
