What is more powerful than a superhero cape? A cape made by the superhero themselves!

In this two-day camp, young makers will explore the plants grown for CHAT’s community programme Seed to Textile 2026 and learn how nature can inspire textile creation. Using leaf pounding, dyeing and sewing techniques, participants will create a unique cape that can also be worn as an apron. Both boys and girls can be superheroes – everyone is welcome to join!

Day 1: Create your own fabric

At CHAT Studio, participants will use natural dyes to colour a piece of fabric as the base of the cape. After that, they will forage for leaves and flowers (marigolds, safflowers and indigo leaves) and use leaf pounding to decorate the fabric.

Day 2: Sew your own cape

At CHAT Lab, participants will learn to cut, stitch, and use a sewing machine to turn their naturally dyed fabric into a superhero cape that can also be worn as an apron. They will then complete the look by creating a superhero mask and logo with iron-on materials and other embellishments.

*Parents can drop off and pick up their children at CHAT Reception.
