Saturday, July 24th 12 - 3 PM

Making and carrying ECHO Totes is a
form of "green crafting" that results in beautiful fashion and ecological
statements. When folks see the totes, they often think "I can make that", and
they can! You can. This workshop is your opportunity to learn a few design
tricks, to work with new materials, and to make a tote that's both functional
and eye-catching. I've just returned from a trip to Italy where I gathered a
suitcase filled with Italian ephemera for our use: bags, wrappers, print ads,
etc. Consider the workshop something of a self-challenge, with a big addition of
linguistic fun for good measure.
You will learn step-by-step:
- How to select tote
materials for their strength and water resistance
- A tote design that's simple AND very useful
- How to water-proof embellishments the eco-friendly way
- Likely sources of free and very low-cost tote supplies.
Materials and supplies will be
provided.
**Please bring a
sewing machine---a limited number of sewing machines will be available. If you
will need one, please reserve it with gallery staff (760-480-4101) by Thursday
July 22nd.
*Discount if you
sign up for 3 or more classes:
3 classes = $185. (EAP
members)
