Learn essential beginner sewing skills while creating a stylish, drapey asymmetrical skirt you’ll be proud to take home.
We’ll skip the scissors and hemming by using fabric tearing for a raw, artistic edge, and the leftover side strips will become the waist casing—nothing wasted (or should we say, “waist not”?). You’ll practice straight stitches, learn basic garment construction, create elastic and drawstring casings, and even try a bit of zig-zag couching for trim.
All of these techniques can be applied to more traditional clothing too. And what better place to debut your one-of-a-kind creation than The Original Sewing and Quilting Expo?
