Sewing 102: Garment Making
Service Description
Sewing 102 is the natural next step after Sewing 101. This intermediate course moves beyond foundational techniques and into full garment construction. Over six sessions, students draft a custom bodice sloper from their own measurements, construct a skirt, and combine both into a finished dress with set sleeves. You leave with a garment you made from scratch — and the pattern knowledge to make it again. Prerequisite: Sewing 101 or equivalent. Max 6 students. Industrial machines provided.
