Join us on November 19, 2011 for a great 6 hour workshop
sponsored by American Sewing Guild
on sweatshirt conversions!

Forget saggy hems and off the shoulder sloppy sweatshirts! Many people are uncomfortable with making the first cut on a sweatshirt, but you can learn the tricks to make your finished garment look great! Get all the secrets of basic conversion for refashioning a plain sweatshirt into a fashion statement you'll be proud to wear! We spend class time with fitting each individual's body type, which may be the most fun part of the class. We use the Fabric Cafe basic jacket conversion pattern and many students finish the conversion during class. Then we'll give you lots of ideas for embellishing your finished jacket.
