Sew Nostalgic!

Customise your closet with 12 patterns meant to show off the bold prints of vintage bedsheets—so you can be sustainable and fashionable while tapping into your inner child! Designer Kelsey Swarthout of @ropedropdesign is an expert in creating classic garments and accessories that give your heirloom or thrifted Winnie-the-Pooh, The Little Mermaid, or Star Wars sheets new life.

With Kelsey's guidance and encouragement, any level of sewist, from adventurous beginner to seasoned pro, can make any size dress from XS to 4X from just one twin-sized flat sheet! Kelsey shows how to make an adorable babydoll dress, puff dress, puffer jacket, vest, and more, all from upcycled fabrics.

This dynamic, charming collection includes not only QR codes for printable digital patterns but also Kelsey's detailed instructions and step-by-step photos, so you can follow along with ease. Plus, bonus tutorials for adding pockets and changing the length of any garment make it super simple to personalise your handmade clothes.

With this guide, you can create a truly unique, sustainable wardrobe featuring the prints and characters that are close to your heart. It's just like magic!
