Clone Your Favorite Garment!
Clone Your Favorite Garment!
Come and join us for a pattern-making workshop with Ann Tilley.
In this class, students are taught how to create a paper pattern from an existing garment. We will use the garment as a reference for style and fit as we learn how to draft a sewing pattern from scratch. We will talk about ways to further customize the patterns based on the unique desires of the students. It is helpful to have some knowledge of garment-making for this class but this is a beginner-friendly pattern-making class.
Please bring 2-3 possible garments with you so you and Ann can assess which is best to complete in the time frame of the class. Please avoid jackets or anything overly-tailored or complicated. Think beginner-friendly.
Supply List:
- A Notebook
- Any Rulers you have (C-thru quilting rulers are great, we will have some for class too)
- Soft measuring tape
- Mechanical pencil + eraser
- Paper scissors
- Straight pins
Pattern making cardboard and pattern paper will be supplied as part of the class.
