Learn to make your very own kimono from our local zero-waste fashion designer Emma La Rocca. Bring an old sheet with a funky print or that special piece of fabric that you’ve been saving and come to make this all-seasons garment. In the class you will learn to customize this traditionally zero waste pattern to fit YOUR body and your fabric.
For your material, choose a sheet from your local opshop that has no stains or holes with a print or color you enjoy. It can be any size from a single to a king. Can’t find a sheet? You can use an old duvet, a large old piece of fabric, or even a curtain as long as it’s not too thick. Bring matching thread if you have it, otherwise we have some available to use.
Basic sewing machine knowledge is required.
This workshop is done in two stages:
Part 1: Plan your zero waste pattern and cut out your pieces
Part 2 (optional): 21 April 4:00 – 6:30pm (separate registration)
Sew your pieces together. This can be done either in the second course, otherwise you will have received all instructions to do it at home In the first course, so you’re free to try it alone!
