Join us for a two-day workshop where you can sew your choice of two stylish garments: the Jenna Shirt or the Patina Blouse. Both patterns offer unique design elements that will enhance your sewing skills and result in a versatile addition to your wardrobe. Jenna Shirt: A relaxed-fit shirt featuring a dropped shoulder, deep back yoke and a charming hang loop in place of a traditional back pleat, it keeps things classic with a collar stand, long sleeves finished with a tower placket and cuff, and a neat patch pocket on the bust. Patina Blouse: A V-neck, collared blouse with a button-up front, designed for light to mid-weight woven fabrics. It includes options for short or long sleeves with cuffs and a continuous bound placket. Techniques you’ll learn: Constructing collars, cuffs, and button plackets Sewing buttonholes and attaching buttons Sewing straight and curved seams neatly Finishing seams and hemming for a professional look Pressing and final finishing techniques What to bring: Your chosen pattern (the Jenna Shirt or Patina Blouse) Light- to medium-weight woven fabric (cotton, linen, viscose, or similar) Interfacing Matching thread Buttons (number and size as per pattern) Basic sewing kit – fabric scissors, pins or clips, tape measure, unpicker, fabric marker, hand-sewing needle Machines, irons, and tools are provided in the studio.
