Greetings!
Last chance for April classes!!! There are still spaces in some of the classes.
Give yourself a new skill for Easter!
We are offering an intermediate class for the sheath dress. This is a favorite wardrobe staple and a delight to wear when it gets hot. A muslin (pretest) garment will be constructed first to adjust for a perfect fit. You will learn new techniques, including an invisible zipper. Take a look at the class description below. This is a limited enrollment class.
The school year is winding down. Moms, enjoy your last few weeks of freedom!
Hugs,
Marguerite
