Sewing And Upcycling Workshop
Stitching Hope. Reducing Waste. Empowering Communities.
Our Sewing & Upcycling Workshop is a hands-on, community-driven program designed to empower individuals with practical sewing skills while promoting sustainability and creative reuse. Through this workshop, participants transform donated or discarded textiles into useful, beautiful items—giving materials a second life and people new opportunities.
After the success of The Needlecraft International Project launched in March 2022 , Ayda is introducting the sewing and upcycle workshop.
The sewing workshops will help people learn a new skill that they can use to find employment, become self-employed, or to support their friends and family.
Have you recently been thinking of learning a new skills? But just don’t know where to begin. Our beginners worksho to Sewing is the perfect way to get started.
