This is a demonstration and lecture, students will not be sewing their own project during the workshop. The instructor will demonstrate how to make a girl's dress out of a pillowcase and from fabric yardage for this very easy, beginner project. Workshop fee includes a printed pattern with instructions for making a dress from size 12mo. to 5/6. Students can stay for Studio Time after the workshop ($5 per hour) to work on their own projects.

This workshop is 1.5 hours.
