Customized Mending, Sewing, and Basic Upcycling Class!

Experience my commitment to creating fun, authentic, and bold activities while shattering stereotypes and shifting perceptions.

Perfect for beginners and those looking to refine their sewing skills. This class covers essential techniques like hand-sewing, patching, hemming, sewing on buttons, and simple alterations. And how to make a "FANCY FANNY PACK!"

A sewing machine is not required! However, if you have a sewing machine, I'd be happy to help you set it up, get familiar with how it works, and show beginners and avid sewers some fun tricks to level up your sewing game. :)

We can rework your favorite garments that need TLC!

You’ll leave my classes with the confidence to repair and personalize your wardrobe, embracing sustainable fashion while reducing waste.

Details

I recommend the 10-hour package deal to set you up for sewing success.
I recommend 3 hours per session minimum.
Sew at your own pace...set up your supplies (and machine if you have one), review the class, and do the work.


We will focus on one project per class based on your sewing level.
Class 1: Beginners hand sew or machine sew a pillow. Learn about the machine or learn multiple hand-sewing techniques. We will build on what you learn in the following lesson. (3 hours)

Class 2: T-shirt Totes and Fancy Fanny Packs. Learn 2-3 hand sewing/machine sewing techniques and how to sew on a button. (3 hours)

Class 3 & 4: 2 hours each lesson or one 4-hour lesson. Choose your project to work on. We will reimagine clothing items that have been bugging you. The goal is for you to love them again! (4 hours)

NOTE: If you have a project in mind before starting class, I am happy to customize a lesson plan and curate a class that meets your needs and desires!

NOTE: If you check out my Instagram account, you will see videos of the different levels of upcycling: 2nd-5th graders, high school students, college, and more.
