We all have things in our wardrobe that don’t fit or just don’t work on you anymore. This course shows you how to give
your pre-loved garments a new lease of life to turning them into modern wearable pieces.
To start with participants will learn how to do simple alterations like hemming a garment or sewing on a button properly.
Next you will be shown how to refit a garment and replace a zip. As you grow in confidence we will tackle more
experimental tasks and try completely changing and upcycling a garment to create something more suitable for your
wardrobe.
The object of the course will be to have a few more garments in your wardrobe that you love and the skills to continue
making changes to your clothes and transform or upcycle your older wardrobe items.
