This week in Marquette we started the day with a workshop on Fashion Hacking! We began by making some t-shirt bags, then we sewed pockets in them on the sewing machine!

We talked about transforming cheap clothing from thrift stores into different kinds of creations, and then the participants got to try that activity out for themselves! People were making aprons, cat-shaped pillows, and baby clothes!

Meanwhile, we discussed ideas about programs concerning fashion hacking, and how to overcome potential sticking points in the process.

The materials for this class can be found here, and we will be offering this session among others in different towns around the state for the rest of the summer, those can be found here.
