#refashioning

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

Anyone know of places in the fediverse where people doing refashioning hang out?

I realized I have quite a few pieces of clothing that fit me from ye olden times when quality was better, but they also kind of scream early 00s (and not in the cool y2k revival way).

Looking to get some inspiration to update some beloved items and meet cool folks 🥰

Schwerpunkt Textilien und Pappe:

Kleidung und Accessoires aus Kleidung oder anderen Textilien.
Allerlei Beutel + Taschen. Alte Jeans ohne Lycra sind dafür super.

Stoffkörbe, Korb- + Pappkartonüberzüge aus Textilien.

Waschlappen aus Handtüchern.

Putztücher aus Handtüchern oder T-Shirts, die zu zerfetzt fürs #refashioning sind.

Kleinere Kartons + Schachteln als Schubladenorganisatoren.

Kisten + Schachteln mit neuen oder gebrauchten Geschenkpapierresten bekleben.

Okay, let's do this:

If you love #sewing but find it challenging to fit it into your busy life, join me in my attempt to sew a minimum of 30 minutes a day:

Refashioning fast fashion! Why?
1. I own it since 2013 (when 3.1 Phillip Lim x Target collection was released.)
2. I LOVE the cut. Haven’t seen anything else that fit me this great, especially around the shoulders.
3. I’m skilled enough to make the alterations I want.

For now, I’m marking the changes and pinning the added pieces with temporary fabrics.
No way I’m letting this one go to landfill; it’s going to be fantastic!
