    Hello Beth,
    Thank you so much for checking out my blog! I am just getting stared in the sewing and blogging world. My dream is to one day end up where you are. I love your site! Especially the rustic chic wedding! My wedding looked a lot like that. A absolutely loved all of the country details! If you have any advice for me on how to develop my blog I would love to hear from you. I will be keeping my eye on you for inspiration 🙂

    Happy sewing!

      Hi Jessica!
      I bet your wedding was beautiful! I’d love to see pictures sometime. 🙂
      As far as developing your blog goes, the main advice I have is to make sure and do a little something for your blog each day. Whether you are reaching out to other bloggers, working on a post, publishing a post, getting involved with other sites, or learning something new about photography…..just make sure to do something each day. Patience is also important, it takes time to gain subscribers and views so don’t focus too much on that, focus more on producing quality content and those things will follow naturally. There are so many more things I want to share with you about this. I could go on and on forever.
      I will actually be teaching a BurdaStyle webinar on this very subject on Thursday, June 5th. Hope you’ll be able to join us for that. I’ll let you know when you can register. I’m really looking forward to it.
      Happy sewing and blogging.

    Hi Beth, I enjoy your ideas and tutorials! My daughter is getting married next month. I just bought a vintage 60’s era Jackie O look sheath and matching coat. Its made of a lightweight silk . Someone hand crafted it back then! Its a little big. I was wondering if you had any ideas I could use to take it in and update it a bit. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you!

    I just found a Badgley Mischca dress for $3 at a local thrift store. I wondered if you study a garment until ideas come to you. This dress is new 3 sizes too big. I just hate to make the first cut!

      It’s funny you should ask this question today. I woke up early this morning thinking about a dress refashion and going over and over possibilities in my mind.

      When I have a particular piece of clothing that I’m trying to get ideas for, I usually study it for a long time. I fill my mind with different images and colors and ideas. I lay it out with different colors and textures. I put it on and move it around in front of a mirror to try and see if certain looks might be nice. Sometimes I can get right to work because the plan comes easily, other times, like with the dress I’m working on now, it takes longer. I try to fall asleep thinking about it so my mind will work on it all night long. It’s amazing but many times when I do this, I’ll wake up with a plan, like I did this morning.

      If it takes too long to come up with a plan, I will just put it aside for awhile and work on something else. Good luck with your Badgley Mischca dress and let me know how it turns out!

    Hi Beth,
    Got on the webinar today. I thought it was great. I was wondering how you fit a full time job into the amount of time you spend on your refashioning? In your time management you said you started with an hour per day. About how much time now do you spend, and do you plan to stop teaching? Or do you think it is possible to keep doing both? All of you information is so inspirational. You are a great teacher.

      Thank you so much for being there today, Barbara! Your comments really made my day. My saving grace is, I’m a kindergarten teacher and I do have the summers off to work on blogging. That being said, I do work on my blog most weekends and in the evenings during the school year. Anytime I have a spare moment, I’m doing something for my blog. I don’t have any plans to stop teaching yet. I just finished my 24th year but if the right opportunity came my way, I’d definitely consider it. Have a great day!

    Hi Beth, love the ottoman cushion tutorial. It is very clear. One thought I had. Anyone with children or pets or significant others who spill coffee 🙂 would appreciate an easily washable version. I’d suggest doing an overlapping foldover (no point hassling with a zipper) on the bottom center or on one side. Then you could just slip the foam out and be able to wash the cover. Another hint. Wash the fabric prior to sewing to preshrink 🙂

      Thanks so much for the tips! I love the idea of doing a side foldover. I usually do pre wash, but this fabric suggested dry cleaning, so I’m crossing my fingers that the spillage will stay at a minimum. 🙂 I might go back and add some piping, I think that would look nice, too. Have a great day!!!

    Hi! I love your site! Wished you lived closer to help me with these sewing projects! There are a few items at our local thrift store that have cauht my eye as for the fabric and color. Where do I begin to know if these things will work to be repurposed? Someone else will have to do the sewing, as I do not have that skill. Do the items have to be bigger than my normal size to be repurposed? Specifically, right now, I am looking for skirts/dresses to wear with fall brown boots and sweaters to do like your oatmeal one with the patches! Your stuff is so super cute! Again, can you just come for a visit to south central Wyoming?!?
    Thanks a bunch!

    I just got your book from Amazon. I have always liked the idea of restyling old garments so I know I will enjoy it. Also, I’m excited that my 20 year old grandaughter has been doing this for several years, even without a sewing machine! But now I found her a second hand machine, so she can really get going now. I think I need to get her a copy of your book too.
    The question I wanted to ask you is; I have many tops and dresses that I want to add a collar to, so as to disguise the slight curve at the top of my spine. I try to wear a scarf but thats not always possible. Do you have any ideas on that?

    She lives in SC and I live in S FL. She was here for a week, but has gone back home now. I already bought her one anyway.
    I’m not sure exactly what you mean by a shawl collar. A regular collar works well, just not confident enough to start. I guess I’m afraid it will look like I patched it together.
    I looove thrift store shopping! I have a ton of clothes to use! Also, I still have many clothes I have “grown” out of. Especially blouses that are too tight.

    I really appreciate your creativity… We have an inner city ladies ministry and I have started a sewing class to teach the ladies the basics of this wonderful skill. Your ideas are great! These ladies cannot afford to go out and buy most fabric, so this is teaching them to be creative as they go into the thrift stores that they normally shop for clothes and look at items in a different way. They love your ideas and are excited to see where their skill leads them.

    Hi. Just wanted to let you know I’ve now tried my hand at repurposed sewing and had a ball. I went to a thrift store to find some fabric I liked but wanted to spend less than $5. For $3.99 I got a twin sized dust ruffle, removed the patterned fabric and was able to use it to make 12 fabric napkins.

    I really would like to know how to take clothing and do something for myself. Many items I see are sleeveless dresses and my figure looks best with a vneck, 3/4 sleeves and pencil type skirt area. That gets a little boring after awhile though. Any suggestions for branching out into something simple to wear for myself?

    Any suggestions on what to do with my old Linda Lundstrom winter LaParka ? It looks like this, but mine is pink. I paid a fortune for it many years ago, and the wool is incredible (without the outer shell)… Being in Canada it’s so cold in the winter, and new coats are a fortune ! I’d love to re-purpose it somehow ! http://www.alexisdress.com/pic/a12/linda-lundstrom-la-parka-green-wool-ladies-2-piece-faux-fur-hooded-coat-jacket-l.jpg

It is called I had a favorite dress by boni ashburn. I have no connection to the book or author so I am not trying to sell the book.

    I’ve lost about 45 lbs since last fall and have been working on a new wardrobe. I’ve got several Isaac Mizrahi cardigans that I bought just before I started losing weight that I just love that are now absolute sacks on me, which makes me very sad. I’ve done several of your t-shirt makeovers and quick cardigan transformations, but tackling these expensive sweaters makes me break out into a sweat! I’m going to start with my least favorite so if it ends up a total mess I won’t be just heartbroken. Any special tips before I jump in? I’m going to do the wash in warm water and dry warm to see if I can shrink it some before attempting to re-size it.

    By the way, I have a number of other tops that are going under the knife this weekend to be rescued using your methods as inspiration. My weight loss journey isn’t over yet, so I don’t want to spend a lot and you’ve given me insight into making what I already have work until I reach my goals. I will be forever grateful for that!

    I’m a male and barely know how to sew, but your tutorials are very well done and with extremely good photos, and when I saw your tutorial on turning a crew neck T-shirt into a V-neck, I was really interested. Rather than a simple crew OR V-neck I prefer a collar, or Polo T-shirt. Many T-shirts, at least for men, have a l-o-n-g body length for tucking in. Is it possible/practical to use some of this for a collar? I should mention I only wear the shirts around the workshop and hanging loose, not tucked in. Probably too much to ask for, but if you have any suggestions…?

    Hi Beth,
    I have been a long time fan and am so thrilled to see your success; and the book is great! Id like to suggest, rather request, a tutorial if I may? Baseball tees are wonderfully comfy and come in many colors and patterns. The rage right now is a baseball tee with a lace sleeve. They are so cute! Ive been seeing them in so many stores and while I love them, the price tags, I do not. A refashion tutorial on turning a plain sleeve into a lace sleeve would be great, especially since a traditional baseball tee has a raglan sleeve which isnt as simple as swapping them out because you have the neckline trim to deal with. I’d love to see what you come up with if this is of interest to you…in your spare time! As soon as I complete my refashion, Ill send a pic your way.

    It’s nice that you can refashion old clothes to make them new again, but for God’s sake, don’t buy clothes made for women larger than you. Many of us are poor and it is very difficult for women of size to find clothes that fit us and you are taking away our meager choices. Your body is one of the conventional sizes. Surely you can limit yourself to that.

    I do some refashioning myself but am frustrated because I am allergic to fragrances, including those from laundry detergent in clothes. This prevents me from using most of the clothes I find at thrift stores, as I have tried many times to remove the fragrance but failed. I have washed in fragrance free detergent, vinegar, baking soda, fragrance free oxyclean, and even a product hunters use on their clothes to eliminate odors that might tip off their prey. Nothing seems to work! Thanks!

      Hi Nancy,
      Thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement. I’ve been so busy teaching, writing and producing videos for eHow that I haven’t had time for another book. I’ll definitely let you know if one is in the works in the near future. 🙂

    I have two long flannel jumpers that I really like but I feel they could be updated so that I would actually want to wear them. Do you have any tips for refashioning jumpers? Thank you.
    I love seeing how you redo dated clothing and make it look so cute.

    My Blog is called ArtSex&Chocolate. It features most of my random thoughts. I actually co authored a book. With the creation of my Blog I want to try out some of my short stories, art and the perils and rewards of being a single mother of a 8 year old child. Whom acts just like a mini sized teenager. 🙂

    We are helping a friend with prom dress alterations. The neckline is a bit to revealing for a 16 year old. What would you do?

      Hi Dawn,
      It’s hard to say without seeing the actual dress, but what about using mesh to create a neckline similar to a figure skaters dress? Or, if it’s a plunging neckline, could you add a piece in the neckline?

    Thank you so much for your book on refashioning items. I enjoy pouring through it and using it to change thrift store items for my girls and myself. I often get compliments on what I’m wearing. Then comes, “don’t tell me you made that!” Please tell me there is another fashion book in the works?? Eagerly awaiting your next redesign!

    I have a mink coat that belonged to my grandmother. I have 3 granddaughters that I would like to have grandma’s coat made into teddy bears. Is that something you could do or could recommend someone?
