UPCYCLE YOUR OWN CLOTHES
START SEWING: TOOLS & MACHINE
This is the FIRST thing you need to do to start upcycling. I put together a shopping list with the essential tools you need, what machine to get, how to set it up, and do the first stitches. Once you do this, you can feel confident and ready for any upcycling project.

WHO IT'S FOR
✔️ You’ve been saving clothes because you know they could become something better
✔️ You crave a creative outlet — something hands-on, off-screen, and truly your own.
✔️ You want to start sewing, but YouTube has left you more confused than inspired
✔️ You want unique clothes that feel like you — not what fast fashion tells you to wear.

HI!
I'M JOSEFINA
FASHION RE-DESIGNER. TEACHER . CREATIVE.
I’m a designer from Uruguay, based in Berlin, where I run my studio designing services, experiences, and workshops around fashion and upcycling.
I started re-designing my own clothes at 16, and it became my career and passion. Since 2011, I’ve been creating clothes and projects, and since 2019 I teach others how to do it too.
After teaching +600 students in-person, I created this online courses to make upcycling simple, fun, and truly accessible — wherever you are in the world.
