Intro to Garment Sewing: Button Down Shirt


Join us to make a button-up shirt with traditional details. This shirt has a relaxed fit featuring a button placket, classic collar and a back yoke. Students will choose between the Anna Shirt (sizes 0-24) or the Jensen Shirt (sizes 2XS-4XL) both by Wardrobe by Me.

This is a co-ed class.

 

This class is designed for Students ready to tackle their first garment, but if you have made a few wearable pieces you will still find this class challenging. This class will cover how to create button holes, use interfacing and use the burrito method to create a double yoke which hides the seams and creates a professional finish to the inside of the shirt. 

 

In the first session Students will learn how to correctly measure the body, select a size and proper fabrics and cut out the pieces. Please note: there will be homework after this session.

 

In the second session Students will read through the pattern instructions and sew specific techniques that will help them in the construction of their shirt including but not limited to burrito method for yoke, collar attachment and button holes. Please note: there will be sewing homework after this session.


In the third session Students will bring their shirt mostly completed with problem areas to adjust and to go over final finishing techniques. Please note: there will be homework after this session.
