Christchurch's Community Sewing Project
Sew for yourself. Sew for the community.
Welcome
Stitch-O-Mat is a community sewing room based in Room 1 at The Old School in New Brighton, Christchurch.
New Brighton Stitch-O-Mat offers the community a resource for upskilling sewing skills and a hands-on way to recycle fabric and develop creativity. Machines are available for people to use for their own sewing project, or to sew for a community project such as the Veggie Co-op and the Childrens' Ward at Christchurch Hospital.
Stitch-O-Mat also offers a Learn-to-Sew class and Sustainability Workshops, plus more workshops for children and seasonal events.
Everyone is invited to come along and experience Stitch-O-Mat for a koha (donation). Come along and bring your own project or pick one of ours (like a vege market bag, a reusable sandwich bag, a book bag, a swim bag and more).
