Are you a sewist? Take your secondhand finds even further!
Instead of just wearing your thrifted jeans as-is, why not transform them into something completely unique? Try an upcycle sewing tutorial.
Paganoonoo tutorials make it possible to upcycle denim into an art-to-wear jacket (Boro-Style Tutorial) or a simpler unlined kimono-style jacket (Carol Jacket Pattern). Create pieces you’ll treasure!
With clear, step-by-step illustrations and instructions—just bring your creativity (and those old jeans you were about to donate) are create something you'll wear over and over..
The Paganoonoo Carol jacket pattern, is an unlined, wide sleeved, kimono style jacket that can be made out of denim, dress shirts, vintage linens, and more.
Happy upcycling!
