Ready to dip your toes into garment sewing? This beginner-friendly class is the perfect place to start! You’ll learn how to sew a simple and stylish skirt, no pattern required. Just a little math and some fabric magic!
Your finished skirt will feature an elastic waist back (for max comfort), flat front (for max style), side slit (for max ventilation), and yes, it has pockets! It’s comfy, customizable, and just in time for that fleeting Seattle summer.
