Tapestries, Sharjah, 2017

Overview

Following on from the success of our Ramadan 2017 charity campaign, this workshop invites participants to give their unwanted clothes a new identity by using trimmings, fabric scraps and patches to turn them from a charitable item into a heartwarming gift. With the guidance and assistance of Mr. Kamal and his team of tailors, participants should expect to learn basic sewing, embellishing and stitching skills.
These revamped clothes will be given to a local charity to be distributed to those less privileged.

In collaboration with Mr Kamal and his team of tailors
