Sewing Stretch Fabric - Simple T-Shirt Workshop
Description
In this 3 hour session we will make an oversized t-shirt which comes with several style options. This course is ideal for those new to making with stretch materials and can be completed exclusively on an overlocker / serger. You will use a paper pattern during the workshop and Lindsey is here to guide you through the process of your first stretch make. She will cover all aspects of construction of the garment, starting with selection of the right size for you and cutting your pattern pieces. She will help you to learn how to cut fabric efficiently using a rotary cutter and self healing mat. Once all the preparations are complete you will make up the garment using an overlocker. **** You must have an overlocker / serger to attend this workshop. **** You will need to provide your own fabric, Jersey or a light French Terry will be perfect. Lindsey is a rep for UK Stretch Fabrics who will be able to provide a discount bundle for the class details to follow via email.
