sewing class reviews

"If you’re looking to build your sewing confidence, look no further. Bex is a lovely teacher—so patient and knowledgeable. I went from being worried about even touching my machine to feeling fully empowered by the end of the session. The small class sizes make a world of difference for getting the support you need. A 5-star experience that I highly recommend to anyone!" - Catherine V

 

sewing class reviews

"I loved the clothes upcycling workshop. I went straight home and started overhauling my wardrobe.  I now have a pile of clothes that I have started altering to fit me properly and an upcycling pile that I will refashion to suit my style. By the end, I should have a brand new wardrobe of clothes without having spent a cent!  Thanks Bex.  You’re a true inspiration." - Leanne

"Thoroughly enjoyed my sewing lesson with Bec. What I learnt was how to use a skirt pattern and cut it out. Great to go along and be part of a group or one on one." - Karen M.

About me... 

I've been living a sustainable lifestyle for many years - shopping second-hand, borrowing, and "under-consuming" wherever possible. My home is furnished entirely with pre-loved finds, and I mend or repurpose things before replacing them.

I haven't bought new clothes in years (except undergarments), yet my wardrobe is overflowing thanks to my thrift shopping obsession! I believe small changes, like reducing fast fashion consumption, can significantly impact our planet. Together we can make a difference! 

I founded Second Life Upcycling to share my passion through clothes upcycling workshops, sewing classes, thrift shopping excursions, and sustainability sessions—helping others rethink, reuse, and repurpose.

In addition to public classes, I also run sustainability workshops and offer speaking services for businesses, councils, and community events, bringing clothing and fashion sustainability into the workplace and beyond.

I hope to see you at one of my workshops soon.

BEX.
