SERIES OF CLASSES

Dip your toes into your first dressmaking project and learn how to sew a skirt with lots of ruffles and in-seam pockets.

What will you learn?

In the first session, learn how to measure yourself and trace the pieces required for the design of the skirt to suit your style. We will also cut the fabric and start with the construction.

In the second & third session, you will continue with the construction and learn how to gather fabric to create ruffles; and also sew the waist band and hem your skirt.

What is included in the course? And what do I have to bring?

We will be using the Mave Skirt pattern from True Bias pattern company - you will get to keep the pattern to make it again. You will trace of the pattern and tracing paper is included as well as elastic. 

PS: to simplify the skirt, we have removed the step to create the drawstring.
