Take those unworn and unwanted clothing items, and turn them into clothing you’ll love with these refashion clothes tutorials!
I got into sewing originally because I started refashioning. I loved being able to make something completely unique and not have to sew everything single detail on the garment.
I used to make pretty crazy stuff. I’ve calmed down in my designs, but I still have a deep true love for refashioning.
Refashioning saves me time and money. It also can be a way to save memories and help the environment.
This is a big list of tutorials for refashioning. Some are for woven fabric and some are for knit fabric. The majority of them are for women, but there are just a couple for kids.
What is refashioning?
Refashioning is to fashion clothing again or differently. I usually use this to describe when I’m sewing clothing to fit different or to look different, but the majority of the item stays the same.
what is upcycling?
Upcycling is to reuse material to create something better than the original. I usually use this to describe when I’m sewing adult clothing into clothing for children or I’m sewing clothing into an accessory or house item.
