About this class
For kids, teens & adults
In this cheerful sewing workshop, we sew funny, colorful things out of old clothes — each piece is truly unique! Whether it's fabric monsters, bags, pillows or weird accessories: With needles, thread and lots of creativity, we give old clothes a new life.
You don't need any previous experience — we sew by machine and by hand. Together, we design small, simple projects that can be individually designed. Old jeans, T-shirts or shirts become new favorites — sustainable, colorful and lots of fun!
