Intermediate Clothing (Intermediate)
Have fun sewing a garment of your choice!
Join this series of classes and sew alongside others as you work through the sewing pattern of your choice. We'll help you take proper measurements and choose the right pattern size, then walk you through basic pattern alterations for a great fit. From there, you can work through fitting changes on a muslin (a test garment made from inexpensive fabric) or go straight to sewing up your finished piece.
Factors like pattern difficulty, fabric selection, and individual skill will determine whether students finish their project during the series. We'll assign homework you're comfortable tackling on your own, and save the trickier steps for class where we can help.
IMPORTANT: If you can't complete your project within the series time frame, you can sign up for another round of this series or schedule private classes.
