I’m looking forward to hosting a workshop for Plastic Free July where we will turn our old t-shirts into new tote bags without firing up the ol’ sewing machine. Here’s a tutorial if you’ve got your own sad old t-shirts that are due a new life. Sign up now to attend Thursday, 16 July 2026 | 06:00 PM – 07:30 PM at the Preston Library, 266 Gower St, Preston, 3072, View Map

All you need is scissors! The last time I ran this workshop the importance of Good Sharp Scissors became apparent, so I have since had all my scissors sharpened and serviced (yes, this is a thing!) at Northern Sharpening Services.
