The Sonoma Tee is the perfect project for beginners who would like to expand their sewing knowledge while getting the satisfaction of creating their own garment that really fits. Let Pattie Otto, with over 45 years of sewing experience and over 30 years teaching sewers-like-you, guide you through creating this versatile garment that actually fits. This fashionable shirt can be dressed up or down and is flattering on any body type. Learning how to measure and select the correct size is essential when garment sewing and will be covered in class along with interfacing selection and application, seaming and seam finishing basics. Try-ons of all sizes of the Sonoma Tee will be available to help you choose which pattern size is right for you before you cut the fabric. Class will begin with basic fabric and pattern knowledge, learn why facings are so important to garment construction and discover tricks and techniques that will take your garment sewing to a higher level. Leave with important sewing knowledge and a finished new garment to add to your wardrobe that you can proudly say I MADE IT MYSELF!
