For Corinna Mattner aka Romy Hood, «textile waste» is an inexhaustible source of inspiration. In addition to various upcycling strategies, she also shows quick «fixes» and slow, artistic methods of embroidering over a hole. 

The workshop format is divided into three phases.  During hour 1 people who already know how to sew are welcome to bring their personal upcycling upcycling ideas and discuss and plan them with the group. These can then be realized until the presentation.

Favorite pieces can be saved during lessons 2 and 3. The course instructor Corinna Mattner offers beginners guidance, tips and tricks and also helps with smaller seams. Repair material available.
