Description - Welcome to Garment school! We will be working with Merchant and Mills beginner patterns. The focus is on technique and construction in this four part class series while creating garments you will be proud to wear! Students will make a drawstring trouser with a false fly and real pockets. This classic pant sits at the natural waist. Next, we will move on to a classic tee shirt constructed with a woven fabric body and knit neckband, pocket, and optional roll up sleeve.
