Trapeze Dress Virtual Workshop
The Trapeze Dress by Merchant & Mills is a true modern classic and in this workshop, we’ll sew it together while exploring a few of the 7 Hacks, each offering a fresh way to transform this versatile pattern. From a sailor collar or frill sleeve to a tiered skirt or bias-cut silhouette, you’ll discover how small design choices can completely change the look and feel of your dress.
It’s a great way to get more out of a single pattern while expanding your garment-making skills. Check out our current roster of virtual workshop here.
If you're considering our Handmade Wardrobe Year Pass, this class and our final 2025 garment workshops - Trapeze Dress, Shepherd Skirt & Nova Coat - are included if you sign up now.

Merchant & Mills Weekender Bag : Community Sew Along
A community sew-along for the Merchant & Mills Weekender Bag
The Merchant & Mills Weekender Bag is thoughtfully designed, beautifully utilitarian, and full of satisfying construction details. It’s the kind of make many of us want to start, but don’t always find the time to finish on our own.
That’s exactly why we’re hosting a Community Sew-Along.
January Finish It Challenge
Our January Finish It Challenge is a four-week, online invitation to spend time with projects you’ve already begun with support, structure, and zero pressure to rush or perfect.
Online Garment Sewing Workshops & Handmade Wardrobe Year
Virtual sewing workshops, studio passes, and Handmade Wardrobe Year
the workroom’s virtual sewing workshops are designed to support thoughtful, skill-building garment sewing - whether you’re joining for a single project or building a handmade wardrobe over time.
Rather than offering a single path, there are several ways to sew with the workroom, depending on how much structure, continuity, and ongoing support feels right for you. This guide outlines each option and how they connect, helping you choose what best fits goals.
