One of my first refashioned pieces where I transformed an oversized button-up shirt into two cropped tops.
I can make crop tops from buttoned tops
Hi, I am Petrina (Pet)! My partner, Jerry, and I run a small business called SwitchtoStitch, which specializes in handcrafted and curated fashion or lifestyle pieces. The name was inspired by the goal of encouraging more people to move towards sustainable and handmade items. We began our sewing journey during Circuit Breaker in 2020 and it has since become a passion and new hobby for us!
To me, fashion is about personal preference and identity. So refashioning an item means transforming it into an individuals' unique preferences while at the same time, transforming social-economic and environmental problems through upcycling, waste reduction and sustainability! I take many of my inspirations from youtube, pinterest, instagram, and physical fashion shops!
