To Seize The Day

September 25, 2010 @ 12:00 By Gavin Webber 2 Comments

There is a new blog in town about refashioning clothes or unwanted fabric bought at charity or op shops, and I am happy to say that it is being written by none other than my daughter Megan.

Here is her bio.

“Hello and welcome! I’m Megan and a confessed refashionista, vowing to recycle, remake and remodel pre-owned, pre-loved clothes into fashionable, new-age clothes that are saving the earth and saving me money along the way.

Buying items and fabric from thrift stores or charity shops and turning them into clothes that are completely individual and unique and totally my own. Gone are the days of spending hours upon hours searching shopping centers for the perfect dress, spending exuberant amounts of money on that ideal outfit. Instead I am spending my time doing what I love: making patterns and sewing.
Follow the chronicles of my tale as I journey
down the long and winding path of refashion.”

Yes, a shameless plug by a doting father, but hey, I like to give new green bloggers a kick start.

Please join Megan at “Carpe Diem: To seize the day” and her adventures of refashioning second hand clothing.

    Clever, you should be a very proud dad!

    It’s what I was into before I had kids & ran out of time!! Go Megan… you are a fantastic role model for your peers, and everyone, really!
