Join a group of ocean lovers, transforming cotton towels into a cosy, comfy poncho - uniquely made by you.
I have LOVED sewing surf ponchos for the past 7 years, trawling opshops and friend's baches for colourful unique towels to live out a new life in poncho form, and now i'm excited to share the process and fun with you so you can DIY your own.
Session Times: Saturday 10-1pm or Sunday 12-3pm
Price: $60.00
Location: Social Fabric Room, Creative Community Campus.
Prep: Bring 3 x towels from home (bath towels or beach towels are both great but similar thickness/weight is ideal). Hand towels make great pockets too.
I have a selection of towel pieces that will be available for you to turn into pockets, hoods sleeves etc. And overlockers at the ready to get those edges looking and feeling profesh.
Bring a sewing machine if you have one, but the room will be set up with machines and all the tools, threads etc we need to create our ponchos.
Level: You just have to be able to sew straight :) Some sewing confidence required to get it cut and sewn up in 3 hours.
