Copy Cat: Duplicate A Loved Garment! (2 Day Camp)

We haven't had this class in so many years and I'd honestly almost forgot we used to teach it! We all have that one beloved item of clothing that haunts our dreams. Evetime we delicately put it on we say, "Will this be it? Will today be the day the thread bear fabric finally gives and I can no longer wear you responsibly?" In this class we will go over the basics of transferring your beloved garment into a flat pattern that you can then use to create a toil (mockup of the garment) to see how you did. All without taking it apart!

Day One: We will go over how to lay out the garment and create a flat pattern.

Day Two: We will take the flat pattern to cut out a toile of the garment and adjust fit.

Supplies to Bring to Class:

• Several garments so we have more than one option of what to recreate (Clean, please)
• 3 yards muslin fabric (cotton) for woven garments (something not so stretchy ) OR 2.5 yards of knit fabric for stretch garments.

Class Level: This class is for Intermediate and Advanced Sewists. Previous experience with machine sewing, several completed sewing projects and some pattern reading is required. Please email us if you are concerned you may not be at the right level for this class.
