Create a gorgeous coiled basket incorporating up-cycled fabrics with Ruth from Craft School Oz.

It could be a pair of jeans, an old teeshirt or some fabrics and yarn from your craft stash. Join the movement to reduce textile waste and learn how to up-cycle those old clothes.

You will learn the basics of coiling, adding different materials and how to shape a basket. This workshop is suitable for beginners as well and the more crafty expert.

All materials are supplied but participants are welcome to bring fabrics and crafty pieces from their own collection.

About the teacher:

Ruth has drawn her inspiration from many sources and has learnt the skills from travelling and meeting women who have shared their knowledge. After visiting South East Asia, spending time on a floating village working with the water hyacinth plant, living in Arnhem Land for 18 months and being a member and active participant of the Basket Weavers of Victoria she has bought together various styles and developed her own designs and methods and is now sharing her knowledge.

She works with plant fibres, recycled fabrics, wool, thread, handmade cordage and even paper.

Our address is Studio 4102 N.O 4 Daydream St Warriewood, NSW 2102.
