 Fun Fashion and Creativity

 

Fast changing fashion trends leave us with bags of outdated clothing that still have a lot of wear.

 

Which at best ends up in charity shops and at worst in land fill.

 

This is frustrating financially and environmentally

 

              Recycle and Sew

            Can change all that

 

    Re-use   Re-new   Re-wear  

                =  Reward

clothing that is well cut and interesting, look at buttons beads embroidery and imagine how you could create something new from them

I began as an independant costume maker with clients such as BBC, National Trust and Powergen.  Running my own fashion recycling workshops for festivals and art communities i developed ideas about teaching, styling and community development.


Recycle and Sew combines my young, fresh approach with the haute couture, techinically accurate approach of June. This combination of skills and ideas allows us to help a broad spectrum of clients achieve their goals.


"Those two create a 'magic' that ive not experienced in any other class, its always fun and between them they always know exactly how to do what i want to do.  Ive learnt so much without even realising it"
