Join Stitch for a masterclass in learning your way around a commercial dress pattern and demystify those first steps in dressmaking.
This class will include an explanation of the language and the symbols used to transfer the important elements around the construction of a 3-D garment.
Pat will explain:-
- Notches (balance marks)
- Positioning of darts
- Embellishments- pockets and trim
There will be an explanation of "tailors tacking" and how you transfer marks onto your fabric. Pat will also explain step by step the mysterious but essential pattern primer.
You will construct part of a garment eg a sleeve, using a pattern in the workshops. All materials and sewing machines are provided.
