In this hands-on workshop with Emroce designer Emma La Rocca, you’ll explore simple zero-waste pattern-making techniques to design your own oversized tee. This innovative method uses the entire piece of fabric, meaning little to no textile waste. Rather than working from conventional patterns that often leave fabric offcuts behind, this approach respects the creation and use of the fabric in its entirety.

With Emma’s guidance, participants will create a mini paper pattern for their perfect oversized tee. We'll then cut and sew the tee using your own fabric. This workshop is ideal for creative beginners, sewing enthusiasts, fashion students and anyone curious about sustainable textiles and making clothes more thoughtfully.
