Customers can bring their own clothes and learn basic techniques

If you would like to learn how to sew, Penneys are going to roll out free sewing classes.

The hour long workshops are in a bid to make the fast fashion brand more sustainable, according to the Irish Independent.

Customers can bring their own clothes and learn basic techniques like how to replace a button or bring up a hem.

The courses will begin in April in Liffey Valley and then extend to Tallaght, Galway, Waterford, Limerick and Cork.
