Learn to sew clothing! This five-week Beginner Level Clothing Course focuses on clothing construction; new sewists can jump into this series to gain lasting clothes-making skills.
You’ll learn to shop for the correct garment fabric and notions, get the right fit, and how to construct a top and a bottom garment.

Using the Ilford Shirt Jacket Pattern by Friday Pattern Company, you’ll make a simple shirt jacket with a collar, buttonholes, and a button-front placket.

Choose a skirt with an invisible zipper and a faced waistband using the Firore Skirt Pattern by Closet Core Patterns
or men’s pants with the Rambler Pants Pattern by Friday Pattern Company,
or women’s pants with the Free Range Pattern by Sew House Seven.

This course consists of five weekly sessions.
Class 1 involves a 1.5-hour trip to the fabric store together, where you’ll learn to choose the type of appropriate amount of fabric in your size, notions, and interfacings. Bring your bust, waist, and hip measurements.
In classes 2-5, you’ll learn all about getting the right fit, cutting, and constructing two basic garments. Bring a sewing machine (or rent one), fabric scissors, pins, tailor’s chalk or fabric pen, seam ripper, and a tape measure each week. Your instructor will email you the supply list of pattern links, materials, and preparation instructions for the projects you’ll be making. Bring your prewashed fabrics, sewing machine, and sewing tool kit. If you need to rent a sewing machine, here is a link.
