Bento Bag Workshop | Fibers @ Riverside
Make a bento bag from a single piece of fabric — no experience needed! These versatile little bags are great for farmers market trips, snacks, art supplies, and more. Fabric is provided, though you’re welcome to bring your own pre-washed, woven, non-stretch fabric (quilting-type fabric is great). By the end of class, you’ll go home with a finished bag, a paper pattern, and instructions to make more on your own.
