Join us for a hands-on sewing workshop to transform an old pair of jeans into a one-of-a-kind, wonderfully useful upcycled bag.

Kathryn Gorney of Quilting Bees will guide you through the process from jeans to finished bag, sharing helpful tips and techniques along the way. It is a fun, sustainable way to give something old a useful second life and leave with new creative skills and an epic bag!

We will provide scissors, strapping, seam rippers, and the other supplies you will need. We also have eight sewing machines available on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have your own machine, we encourage you to bring it!

What you need to bring: A pair of jeans and, if you have one, your sewing machine.

Need a pair of jeans? Email us at info@granvillearts.org, and we will find you some!

This workshop is best for ages 12 and up. Children must be accompanied by an adult.

Space is limited, and registration is required.
