Students will need to purchase fabric and notions.

Students will also need to purchase patterns, as agreed upon for each project. 

Students should also have:
Fabric Scissors
Thread Snips or Embroidery Scissors
Hand Sewing Needles in assorted sizes
Straight Pins (and pincushion/magnet)
Thimble (metal or leather are most authentic, but whatever is most comfortable student)
Flexible Tape Measure
Ruler and/or Yardstick
Roll of Wrapping Paper or Craft Paper (for drafting patterns - paper with 1" grid on the backside is extra nice!)
Pencil
Sharpie (for marking paterns)

PLEASE NOTE: I understand that truly authentic fabric can be VERY cost prohibitive - especially for a first project! It is never my intention to make historic sewing beyond anyone's grasp by demanding exorbitantly expensive supplies. Historically accurate fabric is *wonderful* to work with, and I'm always going to encourage it if possible... but please know that there are truly amazing pieces that have been made from thrifted white cotton bed sheets, old curtains, and discount fabric! Choose what works for YOU and your budget, makes you happy, and feels nice against your skin. Remember that natural fibers are always cooler in hot weather, and often hold up better to washing. I aim to help students create a historically accurate outfit... and quality fabric helps the finished product look and feel the best it can... but what is more important is that they are learning the skills to construct them and they offer their best efforts. :)
