Your host, Kara Cooper of Mount Vic and Me will take you step by step on how to piece together a fun bag using vintage fabrics and trims. You can go simply with less detail or cover your bag in a kaleidoscope of colour!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe magic of this style of stitching is that it's a slow, meditaitive process. It's not about perfection but the enjoyment of stitching. Learn how to piece your fabrics together to create colour and pattern. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou won't be finished at the end of the workshop. We'll build base and layer up fabrics then start some kantha stitching. You'll then continue at your own pace. Use your bag to sew your fabric pieces while you work on your project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe'll have additional upcycled and vintage embellishments available if you'd like to purchase more fabrics to add to your bowl or for your next project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarning: you may become addicted to slow stitching!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eLocation:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMount Vic and Me\u003cbr\u003e115a Great Western Highway Mount Victoria NSW 2786\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eStudio shop will be closed that day to the public.

This is now a vacant shop with some parking available. Station St (turn right on at the lights heading west) has free all day parking. You can also park outside the Imperial Hotel (heading east towards Katoomba).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003eRefreshments:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI'll have tea and instant coffee available.

It's a great place to head after the workshop for lunch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eAccessibility:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnfortunately our building is old and has 2 wide steps to enter the french doors. Once inside, you can move around freely on our timber floors. Happy to help you get in the door if needed. Our shop is up a little hill from parking on the highway. Toilet is an old outhouse up the driveway of 113 Great Western Hwy. Alternatively you can use the park across the road (which has MLAK disability toilet too). Ideally, if you have a support person, this shouldn't be too bad.\u003cem\u003e Apologies as I would love to make this easier!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eAccommodation:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you need accommodation tips, please contact us.
