From preparing your fabric, to pinning and cutting, from preparation for sewing straight and curved seams to pressing, trimming and grading, understitching, darts and more, discover just how valuable Cynthia’s methods truly are. These core skills are used every time you create with fabric and needle, and will save you more stress, “unsewing” and disappointing results than you can imagine! Gain an understanding about what’s been happening in your own sewing room, and how to streamline your process by taking steps that set you up for easy – and reliable -- success. A perfect class or those just starting out, but even more appropriate for those who have a hazy concept about processes used over and over again, like stay stitching, directional stitching, why pressing is an art, and why the grain of your fabric is so critical to the success of your project.
