Sweatshirt Makeover

    I've been doing lots of improvisational piecing, having fun making fabric to cover my deconstructed sweatshirt. The other week I was Kathy's assistant in a class she taught to the Bear Valley Quilt Guild on refashioning sweatshirts into wearable art.
 She got me inspired and energized to make another one. Here's the one I'm working on now,
 using some of my hand-dyes, including shibori ones.



This is the second time I've taken this class from Kathy.  Some years ago, I did refashion a sweatshirt collaging Asian fabrics. The lighting in the room where I took these photos
 was not great, but you can get the idea.
