Class Description

Description

Ready to take your sewing skills to the next level?
At this point, you’ve mastered machine sewing basics. You can sew a pillow, or hem pants… Perhaps you’ve even taken Sewing 101 here at Brooklyn Craft Company and have sewn a rockin’ skirt. 

If you’re ready to build your skills so you can tackle more advanced projects (like sewing garments from a purchased pattern, or our leather sewing classes), this is the workshop for you.

In this three-session sewing intensive, you’ll gain an understanding of sewing from a purchased pattern, and you’ll sew a super-cute dress, custom made to fit your body. 

You’ll leave this class with the skills and confidence to tackle more garment sewing on your own. 

In this class, you’ll learn how to:
  • Measure the body accurately to create a perfect fit
  • Work from a commercial pattern, including size selection, deciphering instructions, cutting from tissue paper pattern pieces, and more
  • Understand garment sewing basics such as proper fabric prep, pinning, cutting, ironing and trouble shooting
  • Cut fabric and assemble a garment the right way
  • Sew darts, sew a hem, create a faced neckline, insert a zipper, and more
We’ll be working from New Look 6262 in this class.

Are materials provided and included in cost of the class? No.
Students must bring their choice of fabric to sew their dress. 

Fabric & Supply Requirements each student must bring:
  • 3 yards of light to medium weight woven fashion fabric. 
    Your fabric must be a woven, which means no stretchy/knit fabrics.  If you are not sure what type of fabric to look for, the clerk at your fabric store of choice should be able to guide you towards fabrics that meet the required fabric.
  • 1 spool of matching all-purpose thread
  • 22″ invisible zipper to match your fabric
The dress pattern will be provided in class and is yours to keep. 

Refund Policy

We do not issue refunds on workshop registrations.

  • If you register for a workshop and later become unable to attend, we will gladly offer a credit if you notify us at least 5 business days before the workshop.
  • Workshop credits are not redeemable for cash and cannot be applied to merchandise purchases
  • We are unable to offer credits of any kind, or honor reschedule requests, with less than 5 business days advance notice.
  • Credits cannot be given for any registrations for workshops hosted by visiting/ out of town instructors. Due to the nature of these one-time-only workshops, all events hosted by special guests are subject to this policy. Thank you for understanding!
  • In the event a class is cancelled or rescheduled due to inclement weather, or other Act of God, you will receive a credit to take another class at a later date (in-person or virtual).

Our workshops require a great deal of pre-planning, including ordering supplies and tools, booking staff, and making commitments to pay our instructors -- all based on the number of students who register. When students ask to cancel or reschedule at the last minute, we lose money. As a small business, we are unable to absorb these costs and still keep our class prices low.  

In fairness to all of our customers, we are unable to make exceptions to our policy, including for reasons of illness or travel. If you are unable to attend a workshop at the last minute, we suggest giving your spot to a friend!

Refund Processing Fees:

  • The following only applies in the event a provider’s cancellation/refund policy allows for cancellations and a full refund, please see above or contact CourseHorse to determine eligibility.
  • In the event a class is still going to occur and a full refund is requested, and you are eligible for a full refund in accordance with the provider’s policy, a 5% processing fee will be deducted from your refund amount.
