design your own wardrobe!!!

do these girls look EXCITED to you? well, let me tell you: they ARE. but their enthusiasm is only about 1% of what i’m feeling as i announce my newest workshop with Creativebug! (oh, and they are wearing samples of the tunics, dresses and shirts YOU can make too after taking it!)

since i’m feeling quite incoherent as a result of bursting with glee, why don’t i SHOW and TELL you what it’s all about:

HOW ABOUT THAT???

sometimes when i teach patternmaking, i worry about not being there for my students as they take their new pattern and go through the process of making and fitting a muslin, correcting the pattern, and then sewing the real thing. my ultimate favorite way to teach in-person is the immersive 40-hour kind of class (like i’m doing at Shakerag this summer) which is rarely possible. but with this online workshop, i can offer you an at-home version that won’t leave you hanging!

Pattern Drafting is the 2nd in our new series of “workalong” classes, meaning each segment will unfold one week at a time, allowing you to work on your projects in between, AND we’ll have a live Q&A chat three times during the month. how FUN is that? so, gather your supplies (there’s a list at the bottom of the workshop page) and get ready (and please tell your friends!), we begin April 1st!

these are two examples of skirts you could make; once you start mixing and matching elements, you’ll see that there really are infinite possibilities!

above are just a few ways you can take your master tunic pattern and stylize it up. as you can see, a whole wardrobe of options…

oh, and leave a comment below, telling me what kind of clothes you want to make yourself, to have a chance at winning a 3-month subscription to Creativebug for yourself and a friend!

4/1/14 edited to add: the contest is now closed; thanks so much for entering!
