FLANNEL UPCYCLE WORKSHOP
Give an old flannel a new life.
In this 3-hour upcycling workshop at La Paisa Studio, you'll transform a flannel or button-up you already own into a one-of-a-kind piece using sewing, reconstruction, and creative upcycling techniques.
Instead of following one exact design, you'll have the freedom to make your piece your own.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
You'll explore ways to rework your garment through techniques such as:
-
Cropping or reshaping
-
Adding contrasting or reclaimed fabric
-
Tapestry details
-
Patchwork
-
Adding or changing pockets
-
Raw-edge and exposed-seam details
-
Combining different textiles
-
Simple garment reconstruction
Your final design will depend on the garment you bring and what you want to create.
WHAT TO BRING
Bring one flannel or button-up shirt that you are comfortable cutting and transforming.
Oversized garments are highly recommended because they give you more material and more options to work with.
Please do not bring a garment that is extremely delicate, valuable, or irreplaceable.
La Paisa will provide sewing machines, studio equipment, basic tools, and a curated selection of reclaimed/upcycled materials for customization.
SKILL LEVEL
Some basic sewing-machine experience is recommended.
This workshop is designed for people who can work somewhat independently while receiving guidance throughout the project.
Never used a sewing machine before? We recommend taking our Intro to Sewing class first.
