Garment Sewing :: Level II :: Tops Series - March 2023



This 5 part series is the perfect follow up to our Beginner Series. In this class you will learn basic garment making techniques used in fitting, constructing, and finishing a woven top. We will be using The Camber Set from Merchant & Mills to make a simple top with bust darts, set-in sleeves, and a bias neckline finish.

We will start out by making a muslin (a test garment) to assess fit issues that may need to be made, including moving bust darts, full or small bust adjustments, shoulder adjustments, and length. You will learn how to make the adjustments that pertain to your needs and how to transfer those changes to your pattern.

Once you have a satisfactory muslin, we will spend the rest of the class learning how to construct the tunic. You will learn how to sew darts, set in sleeves, finish necklines with bias tape, and hem.

This class is Level IISee information about our class levels here.
