Sewing Level II: Sew a Tee Shirt
Sewing Level II: Sew a Tee Shirt
$150
In this workshop, we will construct a not-so-basic basic – a cotton tee shirt! This class will explore the nuances of sewing knit cotton jersey, a stretch material that behaves differently from more structured woven fabrics. If you have found yourself struggling to make the jump to knits, this workshop is for you! We will spend lots of time working with a serger, learn to attach a rib collar, and will use stretch-friendly finishing stitches that can be done on any home machine.
Choose from two different tee shirt styles – a classic tee or a boxy crop. White cotton jersey and 1x1 rib will be provided (both fabrics milled locally in Los Angeles), and we will sew with cotton thread so the shirts can be dyed to the color of your choice after the workshop.
This class is perfect for the intermediate beginner who already has basic experience and competency with a sewing machine. Some experience with a serger is ideal, but not necessary.

Tailoring + Alterations
Tailoring + Alterations
With Sadye Harvey
$150
Imagine a world where your clothes just fit you right.
That is the world we will create in this tailoring and alterations workshop. In this class, we will learn to alter or tailor one article of clothing from your own collection. Each student will get the chance to learn from their class mates projects as well. Classical tailoring as well as creative alterations will be explored, depending on your interest.
Please bring 2-3 articles of clothing that need some kind of alteration, whether it is hemming pants, bringing in the waist, adjusting the length etc. We will then decide which article of clothing is best suited for the class. Options to expand clothing can be explored, but may not always be possible. Denim alterations can also be slightly more advanced, so please bring non-denim options as well.
Intro to Sewing or some basic sewing experience is a prerequisite.
