Transition Your Wardrobe Sewing Workshop

Join us and learn basic sewing and design techniques to update your wardrobe to match your gender identity and style! Learning to sew is a great life skill to have, you can make your own repairs and adjustments, as well as repurpose old clothes to turn them into one of a kind fashion. No sewing experience necessary. Bring one piece of clothing you would like to upcycle. If you have a sewing machine or sewing needles and materials from home you want to use you are welcome to bring in and use during this session. We will have some sewing materials and tools on hand for you to use and get creative.

This event is in partnership with Out Montclair. Visit https://outmontclair.org/ to learn more about their mission.

What you will be using in class: Participants will be using a needle, thread, fabric notions, embellishments, and fabric shears to transform their clothing item into a new piece of fun fashion.

What you need to bring: Participants need to bring in one piece of clothing from home – a shirt, a pair of pants, a shirt, or other clothing item.

What you will make and take home: One upcycled piece of clothing you redesigned.
