Make a Boxy Top - Two Sessions - Thursday Evening January 23 and 30
Make a Boxy Top
Want to start your garment making journey? This is the perfect class for you. We’ll be making a size inclusive boxy top using the Shirt No 1 pattern from Sonya Phillip at 100 Acts of Sewing.
In the class, we’ll talk about sizing and pattern adjustments, methods of tracing patterns, and cutting fabric. We will also go over some good sewing habits and how to read a commercial pattern, seam finishing and making and using bias tape. Finally, we will talk about some tip and tricks for sewing hems and finishing practices. By the end of the class you will have a new top and the skills to apply to the next one.
Pattern included in the cost of the class.
Knowledge of how to use a sewing machine required.
Recommended fabric: - Woven, lightweight cotton lawn or voile, linen, rayon or natural blend fiber (thin, slippery fabric not recommended for a first garment). If you buy your fabric at the shop, make sure to mention its for the class to get a 10% discount.
Please purchase and pre-wash all fabric prior to class.
All necessary tools available in the studio for your use. If you have favorite tools, please bring those.
This class is being taught by Sarah Bates, who is a passionate garment sexist who also dabbles in other sewing projects. Sarah loves all things crafty and is always looking for new projects to put her fabric stash to good use. Sarah is an Eagle Rock native, and we’re lucky to have her sharing her skills with us.
