Beginner A-Line Dress Workshop

Class time frame: 6/22-6/24 2 to 3 days. Same time.
Join us for an elevated beginner-friendly sewing workshop where students will create a stylish custom A-line dress featuring functional pockets and a zipper closure in a fun, supportive, fashion-focused environment. This hands-on class is perfect for beginners looking to build confidence in garment sewing while learning practical sewing techniques used in real apparel construction. Students will leave with a wearable custom made dress, new sewing skills, and a greater understanding of how garments come together from start to finish. All materials are included; however, students are welcome to bring at least 2 yards of their own non -stretch cotton fabric to personalize their project. Students should already know basic sewing skills or have completed Sewing 101 prior to attending class. Limited seating allows for more personalized instruction and guidance throughout the workshop.

• Understanding basic garment construction
• Reading and assembling a beginner sewing pattern
• Cutting fabric properly for garment pieces
• Sewing clean straight seams
• Creating and attaching functional pockets
• Installing a zipper
• Hemming and finishing edges neatly
• Understanding fabric alignment and fit
• Building confidence using a sewing machine for apparel sewing

This class is for students 16 and up.
