Sweatshirt Makeover: Reverse Appliqué on Your Sewing Machine
Ready to turn your everyday sweatshirt into a wearable work of art? In this hands-on class, we’ll explore the bold and beautiful technique of reverse appliqué—a creative method that reveals layered fabric designs by cutting away the top layer to expose the one beneath. Using your sewing machine, you’ll learn how to transform an old (or new) sweatshirt into a personalized statement piece.
What you’ll learn:
- How to plan and sketch your reverse appliqué design
- Fabric layering and placement techniques
- Machine stitching for clean, durable outlines
- Cutting and finishing tips for a polished look
Whether you’re a beginner looking to expand your sewing skills or a seasoned stitcher craving a fresh project, this class will leave you inspired and equipped to reimagine your wardrobe.
What you’ll Bring:
All you'll need to bring is a sweatshirt that you’re ready to reinvent.
We’ll provide the rest, such as including fabric scraps, templates, and plenty of creative encouragement.
Come stitch with us and give your sweatshirt a second life—layered, textured, and totally you!
