Have unworn clothes, fabric remnants, or unfinished sewing projects tucked away? Instead of letting them go to waste, discover how to transform them into unique, practical pieces you'll be proud to use or wear.
In this 4-week Sustainable Sewing & Upcycling course, you'll learn creative techniques for giving existing textiles a second life while building your sewing skills and confidence. Working with reclaimed fabrics and garments, you'll explore how to deconstruct, redesign, and reconstruct materials into something both functional and beautiful.
Across four sessions, you'll complete one or more substantial upcycling projects while progressively building your skills. Beginning with garment deconstruction and fabric recovery, you'll move on to techniques such as patchwork, appliqué, creative fabric manipulation, and reconstruction, developing the confidence to plan, design, and complete your own sustainable sewing projects.
Whether you're looking to reduce textile waste, refresh your wardrobe, or simply enjoy a more creative approach to sewing, you'll leave with new skills, fresh inspiration, and techniques you can continue using at home.
