2009 National Sewing Month Contest

Deadline: September 30, 2009 (RECEIVE)

2009 National Sewing Month Contest

Reuse, Remake, Restyle Challenge


We want to see your most creative ideas for how you implement environmentally-sound sewing into your life.

Have you designed a clever method to reuse a garment that you made and no longer wear? Do you shop thrift stores and garage sales for designer garments that you restyle into bags, totes or ‘vintage’ style garments for yourself? Have you found a way to remake an everyday product into something unique and eco-thrifty? Sew up your best ideas for National Sewing Month and you could be a lucky winner!
