Rag Rug Making at The Tinkerage Shellharbour

Event Details

Join us for a relaxed and creative day learning the art of toothbrush (Amish) rag rug making — a beautiful, practical way to breathe new life into old sheets or quilt covers!

In this hands-on workshop, local maker Jody Hezemans will guide you through the process of turning pre-loved fabric into a cosy bathmat, placemat, or even a pet bed. It’s a great way to learn traditional techniques while reducing textile waste.

BYO:

• Fabric scissors
• Old sheets, doona covers, or cotton cloth you’d like to recycle

 Safety note:
Enclosed protective shoes must be worn at The Tinkerage.

 Cost:
This workshop is FREE for residents living in the Shellharbour City Council area.
A $40 fee applies for participants from outside the area.

Spaces are limited — book now and turn your scraps into something beautiful and useful!
