Adapt your Wardrobe: Alterations that Flatter

Do you have a closet full of clothes that are well-loved but ill-fitting, pants that need to be taken in, or dresses that need to be tailored? Bring your jeans, jackets, dresses, or skirts, and learn to make alterations that are flattering. You will learn the principles and techniques that professionals employ to create flat or invisible stitchwork on materials ranging from wool to polyester, durables to delicates. Please have basic sewing supplies, including pins, scissors, tailor chalk, hem ruler, hand needles, measuring tape, thread (the color of your garment), and garments you'd like to work on. And a sewing machine if you have one!
