Hours of the workshop
Friday 9 am – 5 pm
We will work on our measurements, do the calculations for our draft and will draft the
back of the moulage.
Saturday 9 am – 5 pm
On the second day, we’ll draft the front of the moulage, cut it out in muslin and sew it
up. As we make it up, we will start checking the fit.

convert the muslins into slopers by adding wearing ease.

We have added a few fun features to this workshop:

your stash fabric, bring it to the workshop, and we will trade.
