FOUR-DAY SEWING VACATION:
Be Your Own Designer-
Pattern Drafting
featuring Tricia Crockett, Design Instructor from the Art Institute in Portland
$650
 
In this class you will be using your personal fitting shell developed in the Palmer/Pletsch Fit Workshop to learn to draft patterns.
 

First project: A basic T-shirt in a knit. Learn to add ease, create the neckline you want and other design details in this easy-to-complete project.

 

Bring a collection of pictures of fashion ideas you’d like to design. Tricia will help you determine which design you will create for yourself using flat pattern drafting techniques.

 

You will cut and sew the design during the remaining time in the workshop or you can do additional designs.

 

Recommended Prerequisites: Palmer/Pletsch Fit and Pant Fitting & Sewing workshops

 

If class size is over 10, Marta Alto and/or Pati Palmer will assist in the fitting.
