Sew a Maxi Skirt
Tuesday October 22nd 6pm-8pm $20
Come make your own maxi with us! This two-hour class is hosted by Rachel French, aka Venomiss, and will cover the steps in constructing a basic maxi skirt — from start to finish, from your customized pattern to your very own wearable garment. Sewing machines (as well as pattern-making material and tools) will be provided by Ms. French. Students can register through the boutique, and should bring 2.5 to 3 yards of their chosen fabric. A stretchy Jersey knit is a great idea for beginners, and right on trend!
