1-day Pattern Drafting Workshop
Saturday 10 May | 10:30am - 4:30pm (with 30min lunch break)
Welcome to the beautiful world of pattern drafting! In this class you will learn how to draft and sew a skirt, not just any skirt - but one that is made to measure for your body and taste. Many people find pattern drafting difficult, however, it’s easier once you know how. In this beginner-friendly workshop, you will learn how to construct a skirt pattern, problem solve fit issues, and the professional sewing techniques for that perfect finish.
Materials needed:
Fabric, cotton, non-stretch*
10-inch invisible zip
Matching thread
Half a meter of lightweight iron on interfacing
*I advise you prewash, dry, and iron your fabric before the workshop to allow for shrinking and prepare your fabric for the project.
