Save your favourite clothing from landfill!
As part of the South Side Festival and our commitment to help reduce textiles and fast fashion going into landfills, Frankston City Libraries, with the Frankston Council Waste Circularity Team and excited to present this workshop showing how to create something new from old worn-out clothing!
Bring along any pieces of clothing or material that were destined for the bin and we will show you how to create a set of coasters, perfect for any coffee table.
No sewing experience is necessary! We will supply the needles, some threads and other tools. If you do have any specific thread/yarn/ buttons etc to go with your piece that needs mending, feel free to bring them along too!
Do you have a favourite piece of clothing that is damaged, or near its wear and tear date, but you are not ready to part with it yet? Come along to these sessions with your garment and save it.
The Waste Circularity Team along with Frankston Library are putting on a number of sessions to help people learn to sew, and how to mend clothing in order to save it from going to landfill.
Presented by the Frankston Council Waste Circularity Team in collaboration with the Frankston Library Team.
