Memory Cushion Sewing Workshop*

Turn your treasured memories into a soft and cuddly keepsake. Utilise your basic sewing skills and learn how to upcycle a sentimental item of clothing into a beautiful memory cushion. Presented by Corenne from Fairy Threads & Tales.

BYO sewing machine or borrow a Make-It Space machine. Let us know in your ticket.
At the end of this session, you’ll take home a finished cushion that preserves the stories woven into your fabric — a keepsake to treasure or maybe some nostalgic company on the couch.
