Workshops

Day 1- Learn to drape fabric directly on a dress form or body, following the demonstration of various draping techniques by Linda.
Participants will work in pairs, using muslin or other woven fabric, to make a basic bodice, with a variety of collars and sleeves. This ‘toile’ is then transferred to make a flat paper pattern. Variations to this basic pattern will enable participants to create other styles.

Day 2 – Participants will work with their own fabric to create a style and with Linda’s supervision, will learn how to properly mark, transfer to paper, label and make a paper pattern. These garments can then be stitched together and presented to the other participants in an informal fashion show. Fun!
