Zero-Waste Indigo Top Making

Organised by CHAT (Centre for Heritage, Arts and Textile)

Ever dreamt of creating your own garment but loathe wasting fabric? Join Hong Kong indigo artist Makie Chang to make your zero-waste top using indigo-dyed Ramie fabric that is perfect for Hong Kong weather! In this workshop, participants will learn to sew a batwing sleeve top incorporating sustainable cutting to avoid wasting fabric. The flowy and comfortable style is not only fashionable, but also creates a flattering silhouette. Each participant will also mix and match the diverse indigo patterns hand-dyed by the artist in CHAT's organic Japanese indigo vat, and create a one-of-a-kind sustainable fashion item with a small accessory created with the cut-off pieces. Unleash your creativity and show your care for nature with the unique design! Experience level: This activity is better suited for participants with some sewing experience but welcomes beginners as well. Suitable for participants aged 8 or above. Children under 12 should be accompanied by an adult. Materials needed: All tools and materials will be provided. Please note that each pattern available is unique. The patterns in the photo are for reference and patterns are limited and vary. Language: Cantonese
