Service Description

Join Tessa Greene for a two-day workshop where you will learn to make America's favorite pants—jeans! The workshop will run from 10 - 1 on Saturday and 11 - 5 on Sunday. Lunch will be provided on Sunday. In this workshop students will learn how to: · Make a muslin to ensure proper fit · Make adjustments for fit before cutting out fabric · Construct a fly · Attach pockets (back and front) · Work with a yoke · Attach a waistband · Use decorative topstitching · Work with decorative hardware · Hem This class includes a fit consultation with Tessa before the day of the workshop. Students will need to watch our "How to Make a Muslin" video (sent to students by April 1st), and schedule a time with Tessa to make any adjustments on fit prior to class. Students will then be given direction on any pattern adjustments needed. With that direction, students will cut out all of their pattern pieces before the workshop. Materials are not included. Students will choose between 5 jean patterns (listed in order of pics below: Anna Allen Helene Selvedge Jean (relaxed fit sizes 0-32), Daughter Judy Worship Jeans (higher mid-rise flare or straight leg sizes 0-34), Morgan Jeans (mid-rise boyfriend sizes 00-16), Ginger Jeans (mid-rise skinny sizes 00-16), Isle Jeans (wide leg jean size 0-3-), and Thread Theory Fulford Jeans (Mens). We have all of these patterns in stock and can print any of the PDF's on a large scale. IMPORTANT: The Ginger Jeans are made with stretch denim. This means that the muslin also needs to made from stretch denim. All other jeans can use a woven for the muslin. In order to participate in this workshop, students must be confident sewers and should have experience making garments. Prerequisites include: sewing 101-301, Garment Sewing for Beginners Part One and Part Two, along with at least one additional garment sewing class. Students with equivalent experience are welcome to attend this workshop. If you are not there yet, don't fret! The workshop isn't until May so you still have time to take all the classes needed to take this workshop!
