Using techniques from her book, Design-It-Yourself Clothes, Cal will break down the process of drafting basic patterns for a boxy woven top, a knit T-shirt, and a lounge pant—all custom-fit to your unique shape and size. Then, you’ll learn how to take those patterns and stylize them into endless variations. For each of the three styles, you’ll draft a pattern, make a muslin, fit and correct your pattern, and finally sew one or more finished garments. Before you know it, you’ll have a whole new hand-made wardrobe, and leave with the skills to make the clothes you envision.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkill Level: \u003c\/strong\u003eAdvanced beginner to intermediate.
