Private Sewing Lessons for 1 to 4 people

At Empire Make Space we purchase deadstock and scrap fabrics from designers, the film industry, and textile-waste diversion organizations like Creative Re-use Toronto to make accessible to the eco-conscious consumer at an affordable price.

Our aim is to repurpose these discarded fabrics and notions, keep them out of landfills, and turn them into something beautiful. In the fashion industry when a designer or costuming department orders more fabric than they end up using this fabric, often called deadstock, can sit on shelves for years and eventually may end up in landfill.
