Description

YOU WILL NEED TO BRING YOUR OWN SEWING MACHINE & SEWING KIT (thread, scissors, etc). TO CLASS

Information for Intermediate Sewers:

You need to be comfortable with all the beginner projects.

MOST IMPORTANT- PATTERN SIZES ARE DIFFERENT THAN SHOP SIZES .

Before buying a pattern you need to measure your bust, waist and hips, then check the size chart on the pattern and choose the size where you are the largest, it's much easier to make the pattern smaller rather than bigger.

Bring your own pattern, bring an old sheet or douvet cover to make a toile (sample) of your garment, this helps to make any pattern adjustments or changes before making your garment.
