How to be sure of this class is right for your teen: can they: use a sewing machine and feel confident sewing a straight line? If not, take a look at our Teen Beginning Sewing Camps.
If yes: and your teen wants to learn to make clothing, this is the class for them. We learn to decode the commercial pattern so it fits and is fun!
Class is 3 Thursdays afternoons: Jan 23 -Feb 6 3:30 – 5:30pm enroll here class cost $200
We learn: to buy the CORRECT size pattern, how to understand the ‘language of a pattern’, how to use all the funny symbols printed all over it and how to install a zipper.
We will also start to tackle the difficult conversations of: style and body shape, fabric texture and drape and how to work a garment with repurposed fabrics.
After three weeks your teen will go home with a garment they designed, made and can wear with pride. AND, the confidence to work a simple pattern on their own.
