Saturday, May 9 in the Sew-op, upstairs at the Upper Valley Food Co-op
Skirts are fun, versatile and easy to make. Learn to draft your own pattern from a few measurements to sew a simple elastic or draw-string skirt. Pattern materials provided. Bring your own prewashed fabric or use some of ours. Pre-requisite: Basic machine sewing skills.
We have fabric available for you to use but selection is limited. If you don’t want to take your chances, please bring two lengths of prewashed and ironed fabric equal to the desired length of your skirt plus at least 6 inches. Allow extra for a fuller skirt. Light to mid-weight cotton or linen is great for a spring or summer skirt. Good fall fabrics include corduroy, brocade, and some decorator fabrics.
