About Project Upcycle: Thrifty Sewing Projects:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Project Upcycle shows you thrifting and garment construction techniques that you'll use again and again. You need basic sewing skills -- and an eagle eye for the good stuff at rummage sales -- to make projects like cute cashmere shrugs from old sweaters and flirtatious wrap skirts from vintage tea towels.
Celebrate your exit from the corporate world and liberate your suit jackets and dress shirts into saucy berets. With Betz's upcycling magic, your shirt cuffs become billfolds to hold the cash you save, and you'll learn endless variations on felted totes, limited only by your imagination and your stash of old wool sweaters.
Watch each lesson in Project Upcycle on your own schedule, at your own pace, as many times as you like. If you enjoy creating unique looks that are simple, sustainable and fun, sign up for Project Upcycle: Thrifty Sewing Projects.
About Betz White:
------------------------
Betz White's clever pincushions - felted sweater cuffs fashioned into a teacup or cupcake, with pins as the sprinkles - landed her on The Martha Stewart Show. Working on the principle of "Stitch beautifully, tread lightly," she has created a line of organic textiles, produced using sustainable manufacturing methods, that showcase her mastery of pattern and color. They coordinate perfectly with Betz's original "Make New or Make Do" sewing patterns. Her designs have appeared in Craft, Cloth Paper Scissors, Adorn and other magazines, and she teaches workshops around the country. See what Betz is up to next at blog.betzwhite.com.
