From feed sack to fabulous!

Turn something ordinary into something beautifully useful in this hands-on upcycling workshop. In this class, you’ll transform used animal feed bags into durable, reusable tote bags full of personality and rustic charm.

Each feed sack tells its own story—from farm store staple to one-of-a-kind fashion piece. You’ll give it a brand-new life instead of sending it to the landfill. Along the way, you’ll learn simple sewing and construction techniques to create a sturdy, functional tote you’ll actually want to show off.

Some prior sewing experience is recommended, and a willingness to create, experiment, and have fun. Perfect for anyone interested in sustainability, crafting, or making something unique with their own two hands. Leave with a finished tote and a fresh perspective on how everyday materials can be reimagined.

Please bring  to class:
• Sewing Machine
• Scissors
• Thread (regular thread is fine)
• A jeans or heavy-duty needle
• Marker
• Clips

Optional to bring:
• Nancy will have feed sacks available for the class, however you are welcome to bring your own if you would like. (These sacks are made of a plastic recyclable material, not paper. Make sure to clean out the feed sack prior to class by either wiping it out or rinse out in a tub. Then let it dry. Also trim the top and the bottom edges of the bag.)
