Pride Flag - We are currently working with the community & Eltham Leisure Centre to create a 2mt square community artwork. Old sportswear is being sorted and cut into strips, and the community is tieing to an old tennis net to form a Pride Flag. The artwork will then go on display at Eltham Leisure Centre for IDAHOBIT in May.
Footballs - Last year these footballs were a hit. The pockets are made from old sportswear and other polyester fabrics, the children then take the pre-consumer waste and stuff the footballs full before learning how to stitch them closed. Every football uses approximately 200gms of waste. Which is about the same weight as an adult polyester sports top. You can find out more about our football workshop https://afittingconnection.com.au/2023/01/31/afl-football-craft-activities-fun-and-eco-friendly-experience-for-kids/
