Three variations of "Skirts That Work" made from a single custom sloper!
SKIRTS THAT WORK
In this class, students will make a "skirt sloper" based on their own measurements, and learn how to use it as a template to create a wide variety of skirt styles. This is a great class for sewers who have successfully sewn basic garments and who want to learn more about designing and making clothing for themselves. Also a great introduction to zippers! More information, including dates and registration here.
Smocked Sundresses, long and short versions
SMOCKED SUNDRESSES
This popular project is back! Learn how to use elasticized thread to create a simple sundress with a smocked bodice. One simple pattern can be used to make a long chic party dress and a simple short beach cover-up... plus everything in between. Class fee includes free pattern. sign up and registration here.
A monogram rendered in simple "Lazy Daisy" pattern, as taught in Modern Trousseau With Heather Ross at Purl Patchwork.
MODERN TROUSSEAU
This class is fast becoming a Purl Soho Favorite. Students design their own simple embroidered monogram (It doesn't have to be a letter of the alphabet, it can be anything!) and learn the basic skills necessary to make and embellish a set of cocktail or dinner napkins. More info here.
