10 Refashion Sewing Projects You Won’t Believe

June 2, 2014 by AllFreeSewing

Even if you have been around the proverbial sewing block, there really isn’t a way that you can have seen it all. At AllFreeSewing, we’re constantly surprised at finding new and resourceful ways that the talented designers we know refashion. Today we’re celebrating this creativity by featuring 10 Refashion Sewing Projects You Won’t Believe.

So, what’s not to believe about these sewing projects? Their roots. Crafted from existing objects from around the house these final products defy big spending on pricey fresh fabric (however absolutely adorable that fabric is…). When it comes to sewing at the end of the day what really matters is that you enjoyed the process and are happy with the result. Thanks to these tutorials you’ll achieve both with the added bonus of saving a pretty penny. Take some time today to explore these 10 tutorials that will have you looking at everything you own and imagining how you can transform it into something fabulous.

Refashion Sewing Projects You Will Not Believe

  8. Made from a Suit JacketLittle Man Diaper Clutch

  10. Made from a Tee ShirtElizabeth Taylor's Favorite Lace Skirt

It’s absolutely incredible. We were floored by the fact that these sewing tutorials all used common materials around the house to create completely new, polished, and functional products. Did you ever imagine that your old high school sweatshirt could become your new pair of garden gloves? Or that the outgrown sports jacket from your son could transform into a diaper kit? With these incredible sewing tutorials, the transformations from drab to fab serve as a healthy reminder that even if your fabric stash is waning, you might still have an ample amount of material to work with at home. It’s all a matter of using your imagination.

 

Have you ever bought something with the intention of refashioning it?
