🧵 Community-led circular fashion in action.

We were delighted to welcome representatives from Islington Council to see our community repair programme first-hand.

The visit provided an opportunity to see local residents learning practical repair and upcycling skills, sharing ideas and giving existing garments a new lease of life.

With the continued support of Islington Council, these free sessions are making practical circular skills accessible to our local community.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and to Islington Council for continuing to support the programme.

🍂 Before you start shopping for the new season… shop your own wardrobe.

That jacket with the missing button? The trousers that need adjusting? The piece you love but never quite wear?

With expert guidance, you can learn how to repair, alter or creatively rethink your clothes – and take those skills home for your next project.

🧵 Learn a skill.
✨ Leave with something you'll want to wear again.

👗 Your design doesn't start at the sewing machine – it starts with the pattern.

If you're developing your own garments, understanding how to create and work from a dress block gives you a foundation you can return to again and again.

Our 2-Day Beginners Pattern Cutting Workshop: Dress Block is ideal for aspiring designers and makers who want to become less reliant on commercial patterns and start developing ideas of their own.

Two days. One fundamental skill. Endless possibilities for what you create next. ✂️
