The March Top and Dress March 7th - 28th
Class times:
Friday’s 4:30-6pm
March 7th - 28th
This class is suitable for confident beginners and intermediate sewists.
The March top and dress by Helen’s closet is a fun retro-style pattern featuring voluminous sleeves in two lengths and a gathered skirt (View A), gathered peplum (View B), or a straight peplum (View C). We love this whimsical design because it is comfortable, easy to style, and fun to wear! The interfaced front and back bodice panels add visual interest and provide a great place for a featured fabric or embellishment like embroidery. Views A and B are finished with a neck tie that you can tie in the front or leave to hang open. View C has a clean neckline finish with no tie. The neck tie can be added or removed from any of the views. The dress view features extra deep inseam pockets that are secured into the waistband seam.
Supplies:
Fabric: Light to medium-weight woven fabrics with no stretch. Linen, cotton (lawn, poplin, voile, seersucker, shirting, double gauze), Tencel twill, and rayon/viscose challis or poplin will work well. Structured fabric like crisp cotton lawn will have more dramatic volume and drapier fabrics like rayon challis will have more fluid movement.
There are several options available for purchase in the studio.
Notions:.
Coordinating thread
Lightweight fusible interfacing
All notions are available for purchase in the studio

Please note:
