What you’ll learn: A course to revive your clothes and explore the endless possibilities of textile transformation. Repair a hole, replace a worn-out piece, resize a garment, shorten, lengthen, adjust, embellish… With the help of a domestic sewing machine and guidance from your teacher, you will learn how to creatively and sustainably alter your wardrobe. Let yourself be inspired by your favorite pieces, thrift store finds, keepsakes, or forgotten garments: this camp is an invitation to reinterpret and reinvent, to sew differently, with freedom, intuition, and curiosity.
