Fabricate Wānaka. A Community Sewing Space

Fabricate is a space where members can sew, repair, pattern draft, construct and learn. We have over 10 sewing machines of all types, a growing library of fabric and notions and a beautiful large drafting and cutting table.

The principle people you want to know at Fabricate are Sue (021 500 143), Claire and Estelle. You can email them here:

Sue and Claire have their own website where you can book their online courses. Fabricate is also active on Facebook.
