Let's Make a Circle Skirt (for Kids)
Circle skirts are as much fun to make as they are to wear! In this class for young sewists, we will draft a pattern for a circle skirt using your child's measurements and some simple geometry (with plenty of instructor guidance, don't worry!). We will practice accurate and careful cutting, inserting waist bands and zippers, and learn a simple technique for a rolled hem - the best hem for maximum twirliness!
This is an advanced-beginner level class for sewists aged 7 to 13. Students should know how to thread and operate a sewing machine.
Students are welcome to bring their own sewing machine, or to use one of our classroom machines.
Participants will need to have a waiver and registration form signed by a parent/guardian. This paperwork will be sent out two weeks before class, along with a supply list.
