재봉 초보자 - 캠프 스타일: 18인치 인형 옷 - 모던 스윙 드레스

In this class we will work together to sew a dress for 18" dolls. 

Day 1: Picking your fabric - we will discuss types of fabric and what fabrics are appropriate for this project. We will be preparing our pattern this day as well.

Day 2: Cutting your pattern - will will work together to cut our fabric. We will be discussing grains and directional patterns.

Day 3: Sewing day 1 - we will be doing the basic sewing of our items this day. Your student will need access to a sewing machine (and adult supervision as necessary) this day. We should be able to do most of the sewing during class but your child may require a bit more machine time after class if they need to catch up.

Day 4: Sewing day 2 - this day we will be sewing casings and inserting elastics. Don't forget your safety pins this day!

Day 5: Sewing day 3 - we will be doing finishes and trims this day. Your student will need access to a sewing machine (and adult supervision as necessary) this day. By the end of class your student should have a finished piece of clothing.

Please note that this is a leveled class. Each student is required to know how to accomplish the tasks in the previous levels before beginning classes of a higher level as I will no longer be covering those skills in higher level courses. If students need help learning a skill they have missed in a previous level class please message me and I can point you to a class where we teach that skill or set up a private lesson to make sure the skill is learned.
