Instructor: Margaret Wiseheart Anderson
Students will create funky clothing and accessories by repurposing denim jeans, men’s shirts, and other clothing components, developing their own styles that are hip, fun and on trend. Developing an idea from inspiration, pattern making through draping and flat patterns, sewing, and adding embellishments will be the focus this week, culminating in one-of-a-kind wearable art.
