Did you know you can sew through vinyl banners?! Make a small tote bag and zipper pouch out of discarded vinyl.
About this Event

Did you know you can sew through vinyl banners?! We love upcycling everything at STITCH AND DESTROY, and in this workshop, we’ll teach you how to make a small tote bag and zipper pouch out of discarded vinyl banners. Creating boxed corners, inserting a zipper and adding straps will be covered. This workshop is perfect for folks who are interested in a beginner sewing project. 

If you have sewn before, understand how to thread a sewing machine, and know how to sew a straight stitch, then this workshop is for you!

We will be sewing on Signer Brilliance machines.

We will still go over how to thread our machines and will practice sewing on vinyl at the beginning of the workshop. All materials and machines provided. This workshop is open to folks 18+.

Space is limited in our studio- we are able to accommodate 6 attendees. Sign up now to secure your spot!
