ReFashion Lab: Waste to Wardrobe workshops

Wednesday 10 June | Saturday 13 June | Friday 26 June 2026

Explore the creative potential of discarded sheets, upcycling them into your own pair of relaxed fit elastic waistband pants.

This 3-hour workshop, using textiles recovered from the City of Newcastle’s Give A Sheet event, teaches a simple style of pants with pockets. 

Using one or multiple sheets combined in your pants, you can choose to be understated or create a real statement!

All materials and equipment, including sewing machines, are provided.

Beginners and those more experienced with machine sewing are welcome.
