About the Course

ADULT BEGINNER CLOTHING 101

T-Shirts, Sweatshirts, and PJ Pants


Learn the basics of making clothing from sewing patterns in this fun four-part workshop. We know that starting to sew clothing can be intimidating. What is actually a good beginner pattern? How do I choose the right size? What is the right fabric and needle type for it? Don't worry! We've got you! We have a specially curated variety of great beginner clothing patterns for you to choose from, as well as quality pre-washed fabrics. Everything you need is included in the price!


You'll make either a sweatshirt, Tshirt, or pj pants, which are all great projects for beginning sewists to gain garment construction skills and practice using them. You can do this!

  • Choose a sewing pattern and appropriate fabric

  • Take body measurements 

  • Make minor fit changes, as needed
