ReFashion Lab (Feb)

Something in your wardrobe that you don't wear but can't get rid of? Maybe an op shop find that doesn't quite work?Our new ReFashion Lab sessions are here to help! These workshops will assist you to re-imagine and rescue pre-loved garments - mend, fix, alter, embellish, upcycle or transform them - to make you fall in love with them again.Bring along your project and we'll offer you ideas, technical advice, materials and support to achieve unique results. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced maker, ReFashion Lab is a space to experiment, learn and express your personal aesthetic while reducing waste and challenging our fast fashion world.Bring your own machine or you can use one of ours (including semi-industrials). We also have overlockers, cutting tables and everything you need to give old clothes a new life.Our workshops: Our classes and workshops are created using circular economy principles. This means we love using recycled and reclaimed items, fabrics and haberdashery items for our projects. We are deeply passionate about diverting textile waste from landfill and we do this through repairing and upcycling.
