In this five-hour intensive workshop we will be assembling a garment from scratch! The Walk The Plank Pj Bottoms by Patterns For Pirates is a great first garment project with Adult and Youth sizing. Class time will be spent laying out and cutting our fabric and pattern pieces, and assembling our garment start to finish. We will cover using a garment pattern, seams and seam finishes, drawstrings, and hemming . Along the way we'll discuss garment sewing best practices. Note: we will be altering the pattern slightly to have a drawstring waist instead of elastic waist. Supplies Needed: The Walk The Plank Pj Bottoms - Adult or The Walk The Plank PJ Bottoms - Youth sewing PDF pattern by Patterns For Pirates (It's free!), recommended amount of a light to mid weight non-stretch woven cotton, cotton blend, or cotton flannel for your chosen pattern size, 1/2" twill tape for drawstring (measure your waist circumference + 24" for the amount you will need), and matching thread. Any supplies purchased at Craft Habit will receive a 10% discount! Please note: Your fabric must be washed, dried and ironed prior to class. Your pattern should be pieced together in the size you will be sewing and ready to cut. Supplies Provided: Sewing machine, ironing boards, cutting mats, and a sewing toolkit for use in class. Be sure to bring a beverage and a snack (no nuts please) to tide you over. A water bottle filling station is available on site.
