Newton Farm Maker’s Collective

Make it with us this summer.

Saturdays
June 3 - September 23
2-5 pm

Our sewing collective is housed in the big red barn on Newton Farm. We are here for crafters and sewers and menders and quilters of all stripes and checks and any skill level. There are sewing machines, notions, some fabric, patterns and fab people around to share ideas and skills. We focus on zero waste, reusing, repurposing, upcycling and generally having a good time! First Saturday of each month will be the main skill sharing workshop for each theme. Come join us and bring your inspiration and old clothes!!
