I was thinking, did you want to run the workshop at the Transition Social perhaps?

Otherwise, on a weekend date in December :)

Soonish would be cool although I’m just thinking about what would be needed. Imthinking I could provide one or two irons, scissors, tape measures and stuff so that people can cut up their materialsand iron them out. However, I very much doubt I could get hold of more than one sewing machine for people to sewthe bags together or even if I could I’m not sure how well people would get on with them ( I myself am god awful withthem), I’m thinking it might be best to have someone who would do the stitching on peoples bags when they’re done(do you know anyone who would be interested in helping?) or get people to hand sew them which may take a littlewhile – what do you think? Here is the link to the Morsbags website, under the make one tab it shows you how to make one http://www.morsbags.com/ ThanksLibby From: Jani at The Art House

As you may know, as a project for my uni work I recently started an online petition to implement a charge onsingle use carrier bags in England as in Wales. This must get 100,000 in a year to be considered. I have made anpage for this on Facebook as well as an open event so that people can be invited to it. I have also put it on all ofmy noticeboards at uni and taken it to supermarkets and shops to put in their staff rooms. It has an upcomingarticle in the Daily Echo newspaper in Southampton and Resource magazine have also shared it. I also have anevent planned to give out free tote bags in West Quay shopping centre in Southampton with the petition cardattached to it, just waiting on funding. This place is the height of consumerism in Southampton so would be agreat place to raise awareness. I have been speaking to Megan from transition Southampton about the carrier bag petition and she suggested werun a tote bag making workshop at the Art House to run alongside this project and ask for donations of oldbedsheets and stuff! I think that's an awesome idea! What do you think? I have looked at http://www.morsbags.com/, who are dedicated to a plastic bag free planet and have downloadedtheir tutorial for making a bag This is the link to the petition - http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/40990And the Facebook event, if you’d like to share it or know what’s going on with it -https://www.facebook.com/events/450048178374965/ Thank youLibby
