Garment Class :: The Maxi Skirt

A maxi skirt is an absolute must for the hot summer months. We've chosen several options for this class, all of which can be made out of almost any lightweight woven fabric.
This would be a great project to get used to working with rayon and other "wiggly" fabrics!
Our Garment Classes are all about making classic garments that build your sewing skills and your wardrobe at the same time.
- Pre-requisite: You have completed our Beginner Series, or have equivalent sewing experience.
- Project: You will choose from the following skirt patterns:
- The Mave Skirt from True/Bias
- The Holyoke Skirt from Cashmerette
- The Estuary Skirt from Sew Liberated (the red skirt pictured above)
- The Saturday Skirt from Friday Pattern Co (the easiest choice - no buttons!)
- Materials needed:
- fabric and notions, as noted in the pattern
- machine needles appropriate for your fabric
- matching thread (100% polyester all-purpose)
- Swedish Tracing Paper
- Prep-work: pattern traced in your size, and fabric washed and dried
- Skills learned: basic skirt construction; sewing a waist band; applying fusible interfacing; making gathers (depending on the pattern); sewing buttons and buttonholes (depending on the pattern); hemming.
This class will focus on construction. If you require fitting help, we recommend a private lesson before class begins.
This class is Level II. See information about our class levels here.
Classes are for adults 18+
