Description:
Make your own cozy crewneck sweatshirt, perfect for autumn and winter. This 4.5 hour class ( morning session - break - afternoon session) is designed to give students a chance to improve and build on sewing skills learned from our Straight Stitch Skill 1 class and concepts in sewing construction.
Students will follow a pattern from cut to sew. In the morning session students will learn to measure themselves to find the correct sizing pattern. Then begin cutting materials and construct a crewneck sweatshirt in their choice of Black, White or Gray fabric.
Through the process of our Sweatshirt Class students review use of straight stitch and overlock/serger machines, and learn new skills involving measuring, cutting, construction, and stitch techniques, along with use of multiple textiles.
StitchWorks was created in response to offshoring and its byproduct: fast fashion. Today, offshoring dominates the fashion industry. Large retailers send orders overseas to countries where production is fast, and labor is cheap.
Offshoring has led to the rise of fast fashion: the rapid production of cheap clothing that mimic trends from the runway. This culture not only results in overproduction of clothing, but also encourages quick disposal of damaged garments, as opposed to mending them.
Some people refer to these bags as Box Bags, others call them Toiletry Bags. We think they're plain old useful bags for so many things that they shouldn't be labeled at all. You'll learn how to insert a zipper (YAY!) and square off ends!
