Reuse Rumble - Upcycling Challenge

This upcycled waterproof sundress is from the 3rd Annual Remainders Upcycling Challenge, Jan 30, 2026

In 2023, Nicole Brown and Margaret represented ASGLA at Remainders Creative Reuse - Creative Space & Thrift Store
for their 1st Remainders upcyled a new creation from a pair of Levis 501 jeans using found pattern and fabrics including a pillow cover from our "shopping time"  inside  Remainders! Check out the links for a recap of this exciting event complete with Project Runway vibes!
