Click on the class name to link to the on-line registration page.
This day long class will teach you the importance of muslins. Everyone says, "Make a muslin," but no one knows what to do with them. Peggy will show you not only what to do with them, but how to fix the problems you see, then how to easily adjust your pattern so that it will duplicate the change you made in the muslin. Much of the information you learn from the muslin can be carried forward, so a muslin does not need to be done every time. You may choose a blouse, jacket, dress, or a skirt from Peggy fabulous patterns. Learn all about it. For anyone who wants to sew garments, don't miss this class!!!! Now you can order supplies on-line when you register! One, 7-hour class. Class Fee: $145 Instructor: Peggy Sagers from Silhouette Patterns
