About This Class
Beginner Friendly! Give your favorite sweatshirt or hoodie a brand new look! In this fun and creative class you’ll breathe new life into an old sweatshirt — or start fresh with a new one — by adding charming patchwork fabric strips for a one-of-a-kind look that is totally your own. This is a great way to upcycle something you already own, use up your fabric scraps, and walk away with a cozy wearable piece you’ll actually want to show off. No two will ever look the same!
