Pattern Your Favorite Garment – 3 sessions

Over this 3 day weekend we will learn the basics of making a pattern from an existing garment. This workshop is for INTERMEDIATE GARMENT STITCHERS. Understanding how a garment is constructed is necessary to understanding next steps after creating a flat pattern.

Come with your favorite garment that you are worried won’t last forever and we’ll work together to make this garment a real thing! Pattern paper provided as are specialty tools for creating a flat pattern. Once the pattern is drafted and trued, you’ll work on cutting and stitching a mockup/toile.
