This class can be taken right after the Fabrics & Sewing Basics Class. It is easy, but complex enough if you haven't sewn any clothing before. Both projects are upcycling-friendly, which means you can use any of the patterns to easily recreate the pieces from old clothing & small pieces of fabric.

You will learn

• how to plan and cut fabric for minimum waste;

• how to handle and organize your fabric pieces for ease of sewing;

• how to sew elastic waistbands;

• how to sew inside pockets;

• how to finish clothes' bottom, also known as hem;

• how to give a professional finish to your clothing;

• many other things you will understand in the process.

You will take home 

• an A-line skirt or a pair of shorts tailored to your body, created entirely by you from the sustainable fabrics provided by us;

• a paper pattern customized to your measurements;

• a PDF with sewing instructions to help you easily recreate the project at home in any size;

• notions about fabric cutting and manipulation and techniques that you can use for creating trousers, dresses and accessories;

• a professional picture with you wearing your project.
