Custom Fit Retreat Workshop : with Ron Collins : starts Wednesday April 30, 10am-5pm for 3 consecutive days
Get ready to create custom fits and achieve professional results for your favourite pattern(s)! Ron will guide and move your skills forward with practical and time-saving techniques you can apply, on your own, to future projects.
Workshops will be held at Noble Space, 46 Noble St. Studio #103 (one block North/East of Queen St. W. & Brock Ave.).
Bring garment making questions and ideas and turn them into know-how over three days, with a small group of creative folks and learn from Ron's years of apparel sewing experience.
Maximize your personal consultation time with Ron and have your muslin sewn for the pattern you intend to sew or bring a previously made piece along with the pattern that you’d like to improve the fit on.
Supply list: pattern, fabric, fitting tissue paper (Swedish Tracing Paper), tape, basic sewing supplies (thread, scissor, measuring tape, sewing machine needles, sewing gauge, pencil, marking tool for fabric and notions for pattern). Extra muslin fabric if second fitting shell is required.
This garment class meets each day for three consecutive days, beginning Wednesday April 30, May 1 & 2.
There will be a one hour lunch break each day.
