Course Description:
This class is for students who have already taken a beginner sewing class and feel confident in using a sewing machine. The students will learn how to
properly measure themselves in order to determine their correct size, read pattern instructions, and learn how to make fitting adjustments to their pattern as well as various construction techniques. We will be using the
book, Tilly and the Buttons Make it Simple which includes all sewing patterns needed for the class. As a service project, we will be making little girl dresses to donate to Dress a Girl Around the World. Once your student takes this class, they will want to start making all their own garments!
