This two-day course, led by professional upcycling designer Abigail Schaefer from Mukta_un_done in collaboration with Lizzy Evans from Make Fabric Boutique, aims to foster creativity, environmental consciousness, and hands-on skills.
Sustainable and slow fashion has become one of the most significant movements in the quest for a greener and more earth-friendly manufacturing industry.
Upcycling, in particular, stands out as an effective way to create new garments using surplus textiles that have already undergone the manufacturing process. By reusing these materials, designers can produce new looks with minimal environmental impact.
If you have a sewing machine it is great to bring it with you a really get to know how to use it properly, or you can use one of ours.

Sew Together Sewing Days
oin RAMP for a relaxed two-day workshop where you and your young sewing enthusiast will each create a pair of summer trousers or pyjama bottoms.
Guided by Abbi from Mukta Undone in collaboration with Lizzy Evans from Make Fabric Boutique, you’ll work from a block pattern, learning how to select the right size, cut your fabric, and sew your garment step by step.
You’ll both work on your own projects, and you’re welcome to make your sewing sustainable by using upcycled bed sheets, scrapstore finds, or your favourite lightweight cotton.
This is a great opportunity to spend quality time together while learning new skills in a friendly and supportive environment. Ideally, you’ll both have some basic experience using a sewing machine, but Abbi will be there to guide you through the whole process.
Please bring your own fabrics—full details of what you’ll need will be sent after booking. If you have your own sewing machine, we recommend bringing it along to use in the workshop.
Come and enjoy two creative, practical days away from the usual routine—and leave with something handmade to wear and be proud of.

Wednesday, 20th August, 10am - 3pm
