In this class, learners will learn about upcycling, or using something existing to make something new! We will be using ready-made t-shirts to create a new slouchy tshirt, tunic top, or dress! Learners will learn about creating their own patterns from existing clothing, making adjustments such as like sleeve length, hem length, neckline shape, and fit (making something slim fit or flowy), and about hemming. No pattern needed. Learners will walk away with a custom top made just for them! Learner pre-requisites: Ability to use a sewing machine to sew, and sew backwards and forwards

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Whitney and I am so excited to have the opportunity to share my expertise with you! I have a Bachelors degree from Florida State University, and I have over 10 years of teaching experience. I have taught formally in a preschool classroom, and I currently teach ESL online. I have also taught horseback riding, rowing, canning, Sunday school, and I look forward to sharing my classroom with you!
I believe that learning should be FUN! Some times a bit messy, maybe a bit silly, but always full of smiles and laughter. I believe that we remember what we learn best when we remember the experience as a positive one. I also believe that life can be one of the greatest educators. I love to bring real life examples into my classes.
When I am not spending with my family and dogs, I enjoy teaching sewing classes, budgeting classes, science, English, art, and having a fun and educational story time for young learners. Often times, I will bring my dogs to class as teaching tools!
Thank you for viewing my profile, and I hope to see you in class soon!
