Holiday Kids Workshops

Learn to design and make your own clothes. This fall ans winter we are offering a series of workshops geared for the young designer and anyone who wants to learn about making their own clothes. By creating your own garments you will have a better sense of how clothes should fit you, and when apparel is well made (saving you much heartache and money as a shopper).

Workshops will include a series of structured projects, decided by consensus within the group, such as making their own Skirts, Shorts, Sun Dresses, PJs, Shoulder Bags, Stuffys, or T-Shirts. We are all about teaching process, and begin with a sketch of the envisioned garment. Steps include using a pattern, cutting out your design, fabricating (sewing) and fitting the garment. By weeks end you will have 3 or more finished pieces for your wardrobe, and a design book including your sketches, swatches of the fabrics used, and a photo of you in your finished outfit. Workshops are Monday through Friday for 2 hours each day. There is a maximum of 4 students per session, so sign up soon. Cost is $250 for the week. All materials included.
