Gorros de mujer del siglo XVIII: un taller sobre la historia de la costura y la moda
Experiencia de clase
This class is a breakout from my complete course "18th Century Working Women's Dress Sew-Along Workshop" It is designed for students who want to start small and try their hand at making just one basic piece. The cap is quite an essential part of the wardrobe... Consisting of straight and curved lines & seams, and several different stitches (basting stitch, running/gathering stitch, back stitch, and hem stitch) this is a perfect class for a first time hand sewer who wants to work on a...

I've been sewing historic garment reproductions for over 30 years. I've worked in several living history museums, for over more than 18 years, creating my all my own professional costuming for various time periods in history... as well as researching and writing staff costuming standards guides for two museums and drafting patterns from photographs and historic garments in the collection. My extended family lives near Colonial Williamsburg, where I have visited many times, taking part in several workshops related to historic textile arts. I currently consult and demonstrate as a domestic and textile historian for Great Smoky Mountain Heritage Center.

Frecuencia: incluidoComentario: incluidoDetalles: Between classes, students will be expected to continue working on their garments at home... How much time this will require depends on the speed of each students sewing, but everyone should expect to put in 4+ hours of additional sewing between the classes to finish the garment.Evaluación

1 archivo disponible al momento de la inscripciónStudents will be provided with an original PDF pattern they will need to print for the first class, where we will assemble them. Students will also need to purchase fabric and notions - Cap: 1 yard white fabric (Fabric Notes: Unless otherwise noted, for a historically accurate cap this should be 100% linen or cotton, in a light to medium weight. Linen/cotton blends are also acceptable. Please feel free to contact me for additional advise regarding sources or if you have any questions.) Additional Notions: White Thread 1" Wide Ribbon in a solid color of the student's choice (sateen or grosgrain) Students should also have: Fabric Scissors Thread Snips or Embroidery Scissors (optional) Hand Sewing Needles in assorted sizes Straight Pins (and pincushion/magnet) Thimble (metal or leather are most authentic, but whatever is most comfortable for the student) Flexible Tape Measure, Ruler, and/or Yardstick Pencil Iron & Ironing board 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. :)
Students will be hand sewing, using sharp scissors, needles and pins, and hot irons.

Hi Friends! I grew up homeschooling in the woods of Maine. I spent my summers at Girl Scout camp, and traveling across the country on adventures primarily focused on the outdoors and history - like a wagon train traversing the North Dakota...
