Are you looking for ways to keep your sewing budget in check? Maybe you are having difficulty finding sewing supplies? Or, do you have extra clothes in your closet that you don't know what to do with? In this course we are going to share some of our favorite upcycling tips as Cinnamon, Donna, and Shari work together to create a few unique looks each using the same upcycled shirt!

We will be rounding out this topic over four installments as we walk you through the planning and sewing processes. We hope this inspires you to try a little upcycling yourself, we'd love to see what you come up with at the end of the course too!

We encourage you to follow along with us as we plan and create our projects! Maybe you want to make the same thing, maybe you have a favorite pattern you want to try out instead, either would be great!

Here are a few of our favorite places to find dress shirts for upcycling:

Our own (or husbands) closet!
Goodwill
Discount stores like Marshalls, Tj Max, or Ross
