Denim Upcycling: Turn denim into art
Let me take you on an adventure to create something truly personal, and unique - something that pushes the limits of your skills as a dressmaker. Together, we will use a myriad of jeans, clothes, bits, bobs, and a bit of bonkers to transform the mundane into art. I can show you the techniques I use to take jeans apart, how to use each part the best way, and to ensure nothing is wasted. You and I will collaborate on a piece you want to see come together – feel free to review my gallery or Instagram for ideas.
As many old jeans, non-stretch, as you can bring (the more complex what you want to make, the more we will need.
Examples of things that inspired you for the piece, sentimental clothing you may want to utilize with the piece, etc
