Welcome to Tatterworks. I make everything from pre-loved natural fiber sweaters, tees, and other clothing I find at thrift shops. I use wool, cotton, cotton denim, linen, and silk fabrics to create my one-of-a-kind whimsical garments. I love what I do, and hope my clothes make you happy! Life is too short to wear boring clothes!

About Tatterworks
Pre-loved sweaters, tees, and denim repurposed into fabulous fun pieces of wearable art for women.
Welcome to Tatterworks
I learned to sew on my Mother’s Singer featherweight (the cool black one) when I was 7 years old and have been sewing ever since. I discovered the use of pre-loved sweaters and upcycling from the artist Katwise in upstate NY, but have adapted my own style to this art form. Every Tatterworks piece is a one of a kind garment of wearable art made from recycled wool and cotton sweaters, denim jackets and jeans, cotton t-shirts, and chiffon from clothing found in thrift shops.
Everything is made by my hands. I love the interplay between texture, color, and pattern which makes designing each piece a challenge but so much fun. I have a huge stash of sweaters that I arrange by color and fiber and when one or two speak to me I pull them out and start mixing and matching the others. It can take days to get the right mix before I start cutting and sewing.
I sell at Juried craft shows in Vermont, and here on Etsy.
