Teenagers it's your time to take some time out and sew your own slip slidin' slippers!
We will start by making a collage of fabric scraps. quilting them with wool wadding, and sew them together to fit your feet perfectly. You will learn cutting and sewing skills, how to make your own bias binding, and we promise you'll leave excited to put your feet up and chill the rest of school break.
Fabrics, threads and tools supplied.
