About the Class
Create your own beautiful summer dress in a hands-on workshop using the Rossi & Fredy Wrap Pattern from The Bold One. This wrap-style dress is flattering on all ages and sizes, with multiple customisation options including neckline, sleeve, waist tie and length, so you can make a dress that suits your style. It's the perfect summer dress for exploring new places on holiday, to wear as a guest to a wedding or for an easy, everyday summer outfit. This workshop is ideal for confident beginners who have already made a couple of garments and want to take their skills further. During the workshop you’ll sew your own summer dress with guidance from our tutor. Options include: • Sleeveless or sleeved versions • Multiple neckline styles • Princess‑seamed bodice for shaping • Optional leg split • Waist ties • Length adjustments to suit your height To get the most out of the day, we recommend you cut your pattern and fabric in advance. If you need help with sizing, pop us a message, and our large cutting tables can be rented in advance if needed. What You’ll Learn • Working with commercial patterns • Simple fit adjustments • Sewing curved seams and princess seams • Constructing wrap details and waist ties • Finishing seams, hems and necklines You’ll leave with the confidence to complete your dress if it’s not finished in class. What to Bring • Rossi & Fredy Wrap Pattern • Fabric for your chosen design • Matching thread • Any interfacing or notions required by the pattern You can also order supplies through our online shop and collect them at the workshop, or choose a ready-made sewing kit. Please Note Everyone sews at a different pace. You may not finish your dress in the workshop, but you’ll leave with the skills and confidence to complete it at home.
