How to Construct: A Denim Puffer Scarf

How to Construct: A Denim Puffer Scarf

Overview

Learn to craft a sculptural denim puffer scarf with Chop YAM’s Melody Willis at Mood Fabrics Chicago! Equipment provided or bring your own.

Join denim designer Melody Willis of Chop YAM® for a hands-on workshop creating a sculptural denim puffer scarf. Using denim and batting, participants will learn how padding and construction can transform a traditionally rigid fabric into a dimensional accessory that holds its shape when worn.

Throughout the workshop, Melody will guide participants through constructing the scarf, including creating padded channels and the keyhole opening used to secure and style the finished piece. By the end of the session, each participant will leave with their own completed denim puffer scarf and techniques they can apply to future projects.
