Upcycled Sweatshirt Jacket - Appleton

During this 3 part class, turn a cozy sweatshirt into a one-of-a-kind quilted jacket! In this fun, hands-on class you'll learn how to cut and piece colorful fabric strips from fat quarters or scraps, attach them to a deconstructed sweatshirt, and sew it all back together into a wearable work of art. You'll also learn finishing techniques including binding — just like a quilt. No two jackets will ever look the same, and your fabric choices make it uniquely yours. All skill levels welcome.
