We support up-cycling! Help save the planet by refashioning a thrifted garment or a give a garment in your closet new life. This class is a 3-day series. In the first session, we will meet at Texas Thrift Store on I-35 to talk about how to wisely select a garment and the deconstructing plan for your garment, whether you choose one from there or you bring one you already have. The second and third sessions, we will meet at Lockstitch & Lustre to give that garment a make-over. Please note, depending on the complexity of your desired change, you may have homework (such as seam ripping) in between sessions or you may need to book a private lesson to finish the project, if you desire a bunch of changes.

Prerequisite: Must have experience sewing garments from a pattern. Basic alteration knowledge is a plus, but not required.
