SEWING
Find ideas, learn the techniques,
make beautiful things.
“Creativity is contagious, pass it on.”
REUSE, RESHAPE, CREATE.
In this section, we share sewing ideas and show you how to transform clothes or home accessories, bringing new life to old items instead of throwing them away.
While altering an existing piece can be less daunting than crafting a new one from scratch, customizing also enables you to create your unique and original style.
By recycling unused pieces, you contribute to reduce waste and preserve natural resources. A nice way of supporting eco-friendly behaviors!
Dress with decorative trim
Skirt suit
We transformed a coat into a stylish and versatile ensemble. By repurposing the original garment, we produced two exclusive pieces with a slimmer and highly feminine silhouette. Zippers lend the finishing touch.
Quilted bedspread
Bring new color and life into your bedroom! We used two existing duvet covers to create a quilted bedspread. The original border and lining from the second cover create a fancy, yet soft design.
Pink suit
Inspired by glamorous 1950’s style and Dior’s legendary New Look, we created a romantic and sophisticated outfit that showcases the distinctive feminine silhouette defined by a tiny waist and a round full skirt with multiple layers and mid-length hemline.
Exclusive decorative pattern
This decorative pattern has been created using our Stitch Composer software, which is provided with our eXcellence 780+, eXpressive 860 and eXpressive 920. We used it to decorate the silk blouse that is part of the pink suit posted above.
Cushion with appliques
Out of matching pillow covers, we made a fantasy cushion using appliqué. In the tutorial, we show the step-by-step guidelines and provide the pattern. There are no limits for making fun and astonishing accessories!
Tote bag
This sweet tote bag is a quick and easy sewing project. It will serve all sorts of purposes and will follow you to work or school, to your next outing or sewing class.
