Join us to sew chic-yet-comfy Pietra Shorts! These gently flared shorts have a flat front, high-waisted silhouette with the comfort of an elastic waist in the back. Featuring lengthening panels in the front with slanted hip pockets and a hidden waist stay, you’ll never want to take them off.
In this advanced-beginner, two part workshop, you'll learn to sew from a printed pattern, AND you'll sew an amazing pair of Pietra Shorts, custom made to fit your body. You'll leave this class with the skills and confidence to tackle more garment sewing on your own.
You'll learn how to:
- Measure the body accurately to create a perfect fit
- Work from a commercial pattern, including size selection, deciphering instructions, cutting from paper pattern pieces, and more
- Understand garment sewing basics such as proper fabric prep, pinning, cutting, ironing and troubleshooting
- Become familiar with sewing jargon commonly found in commercial patterns
- How to sew a flat-front waist with an elastic back, slanted hip pockets, and a hem.
- How to finish seams with a zig zag stitch
- Due to time constraints, all students will make the shorts version of this pattern. We will not be able to sew full pants in this workshop.
This is a two part workshop being held on the following dates:.
Wednesday 8/13 at 6:30pm-9:30pm and Wednesday 8/20 at 6:30pm-9:30pm
