Collaborative Patchwork Project

You are invited to contribute to a ‘growing’ textile using up-cycled materials. All the materials have been sourced from lots of fabric off cuts; encouraging reusing and recycling. These throw away items will get a new lease of life and will become part of a collaborative patchwork. Pieces can be hand sewn, punched, wired or anything in between!

Claire Hey will be on site as the gardener, sewing the pieces together daily on her machine, by hand or with wire.Anyone wanting to help is welcome.
