Extend the life of textiles products by creating something else by restyling or fixing them. Before discarding old clothes upgrade them to create a new look by altering, accessorising and combining clothes and other textiles products to produce something new.
The course offers you a place to explore ideas and processes that can be used to upgrade your old textiles. Examples of what can be achieved are converting old jeans into shorts, bags, and skirts and men’s shirts into sundresses or bags.
There are a wide range of options and with instructions on how to achieve the transformations, your imagination is the only thing stopping you.
