====== Textiles "Date night" Workshop Ideas ======

No clearance required / all sewing done by a docent

  * Iron-on transfers - Docents pre-fuse a bunch of cute fabrics to iron-on transfer paper. Workshop attendees draw and cut shapes, then iron to substrate to make a scene, words, etc. Docents zigzag over raw edges of transfers (could be during class so that attendees go home with their items, or could be afterwards and attendees pick up items later).
      * Tote bags
      * Aprons
      * Tees
      * Hats
      * Baby onesies
  * Embroidered patches - Pick colors and design/s (probably don't do custom lettering again, that took forever). Docents embroider. Fuse to iron-on transfer paper and cut out. Go home with iron-on patch(es).
  * Leggings (with 2+ docents, one on the serger) - Take measurements (gotta be as numbers alas) and draft a pattern. Pick fabric and cut out. Docent sews (it's only three seams and the serger is fast). Go home with pattern and finished garment.

Consumer sewing machine clearance required

  * Plastic-free storage bags for vegetables, grains, bulk bins, etc. Can be custom-sized. Lay out, cut, and sew in class, go home with finished bag(s).
