This mindful and sustainable craft is rooted in reusing and repurposing — breathing new life into fabrics that might otherwise go to waste.Using a wooden proggy tool, you’ll learn how to push fabric clippings through a reclaimed hessian backing to create a beautiful, tactile design that you can take home and display as a framed artwork or wall hanging.What to Expect:Step-by-step guidance in the traditional proggy techniqueUse of a wooden proggy tool and reclaimed hessian backingOpportunity to create a motif (such as a heart or abstract design)A relaxed and welcoming creative spaceMaterials:Fabric scraps provided (you're also encouraged to bring your own unwanted or leftover fabrics — any kind will do!)Hessian backing fabric reclaimed from a local Leicestershire coffee roasterAll tools suppliedThis is a therapeutic and eco-friendly craft perfect for those looking to unwind while making something meaningful.
