Gather design ideas, sewing tips, and practical advice from creative sewist Becky Fulgoni, as she shares her 12-month challenge to reconceive unworn garments and unused textiles from the back of her closet. Her Year of “Re” collection walks through her journey of finding ways to restyle, redo, and otherwise remake what she already owned into clothes she would wear today.
Ultimate Reuse Challenge
The first installment in this Year of “Re” series explains how Becky decided to pose this challenge to herself. What follows are 12 installments that delve into her design thought process and construction explanation for completing each project. The results transformed everything from an artful tea towel and a plastic tote into garments or accessories that Becky is now thrilled to wear.
