Shirred Garment: Adult/Teen Workshop

Make a tube top, maxi dress, or skirt, and get comfortable using a sewing machine. You’ll learn how to take your measurements, sew a french seam, and create a simple self-drafted garment using “shirring” techniques to gather the top of it. Beginners are welcome!

Bring your sewing machine or use one of ours. If you can, please bring 2 spools of elastic thread. Access to our stash of fabrics and regular thread is included! You may also bring 3.5 yards of a woven fabric of your choice (stable fabrics like quilting cotton, cotton poplin, linen, and raw silk are recommended).

In-Person at Threaded Together

For adults and teens. Stitchers age 13+ may attend on their own. *All of our group classes are offered with sliding scale pricing! See the graphic on the main class page for details.* Please sign up at least 48 hours in advance, to make sure that classes have enough enrollment to go forward. We’re eager to offer people the in-person experiences they have been missing while making sure our classes are as safe as possible while the pandemic continues. Space is limited to allow for social distancing. We are continuing to monitor and follow CDC guidance on masking for indoor gatherings, and ask that you do as well.
