A weekly 60-minute session and a chance for teens to explore fashion, style, and build their own wardrobe though sustainable means. Students must have previous sewing experience through our Sew Happy or Sewing+DIY program.

• FOR CONFIDENT BEGINNERS, ages 11-13, teaching all about sustainable fashion with easy upcycling projects.

• FOR INTERMEDIATES, ages 14-17, the ability to explore more complex upcycling patterns and ideas

• FOR TRUE UPCYCLERS : encouraging sewists to bring in their thrifted finds and hand-me downs and changing them into ON TREND items. The focus here is creative control!

• Over the course of 10 months, students will progress from confident sewists to designers!

• Working with sewing machines and the right tools, students will practice sewing for fashion while learning all the skills to create, alter, or upcycle and finish new-to-them pieces. Students may even construct brand new garments while using reclaimed fabrics.
