Remix Shirt with Rel from We Who Stitch

Beginner to Intermediate

The REMIX Boxy Top is a modular patchwork sewing pattern designed to turn small pieces of fabric into something genuinely special.

You know that fabric you've been saving? The scraps from your favourite projects, the fat quarters that are too good to cut, the old shirts you can't quite let go of?

It's time to stop saving and start wearing. The REMIX Boxy Top is a modular patchwork sewing pattern designed to turn small pieces of fabric into something genuinely special. In this one-day workshop, you'll be guided by Rel Maxwell — the designer behind REMIX and the creative force at Loom Fabrics and We Who Stitch — as you mix, cut and sew your way to a wearable, one-of-a-kind top.

No two will look the same. That's the whole point.'
