Do I need sewing experience?

Not at all! The course is designed for beginners. You will need a sewing machine and the tools though. But if you already have some experience, it’s still valuable because I teach you how to think creatively and apply the techniques.

How long does it last?

You get lifetime access to all the courses, so you can do at your own pace, in your own schedule. And re-watch every time you need a refresh.

What if I have questions or get stuck?

You’ll get access to the Upcyclers Hub, where you can post all your questions, and connect with the other participants. I'll be there to answer your questions and keep you on track. Or you can always message me!

Can I get my money back if I don't like it?

All sales are final—we don't offer refunds once you enroll, since you get immediate access to all course materials. That said, I'd love to hear from you if it didn't work out and help you find a way to make the most of it.

What if I'm not a beginner?

These courses are for people getting started — but don’t worry, more advanced ones are coming soon to follow these! I’m turning all my sewing know-how into video form, one course at a time.

UPCYCLE YOUR OWN CLOTHES

UPCYCLE YOUR FIRST OUTFIT

In this course for total beginners, you’ll turn a long piece into matching top and bottom, while learning the essential sewing skills: cropping, hemming, resizing, and adding an elastic waistband.

You’ll finish with a wearable outfit, and the confidence to use these skills to redesigning more of your closet.
