Why

Come together for our "Soup & Sew" event!

A creative morning honoring mothers and children affected by genocide, from Palestine to First Nations communities and everywhere.

  • Dragonfly Cafe & Deli, Preston VIC 3072
  • Saturday 27 Jun 2026
  • 11 AM - 3 PM

All ages welcome - no registration needed

Hearty soup available for $10 (event special!)

Two ways to join:

  • FREE – Bring your own fabric and materials
  • $5 – All materials provided

Small children socks donations needed.

We’ll be making fabric art squares for a large quilted banner. A declaration that mothers on this stolen land (so‑called Australia) stand united against all genocide and all forms of oppression.

How to make your square:

  1. Conceptualise – a design that tells your story
  2. Sketch – on a 15cm x 15cm paper template
  3. Gather fabric – 17cm x 17cm (includes 2cm stitching border)
  4. Create together – on the day
  5. Contribute – leave your square with us

All squares go to Mothers Against Genocide Art, to be stitched into one unified banner.
