Prerequisite skills: Must have taken a beginner sewing class with us at Rightfully Sewn, or have 2+ years prior sewing experience.

This is a 3-class package. You must purchase entire SWIMWEAR CLASS PACKAGE to participate.

Create your own custom swimsuit design and sew it too! In this three-part series you will draft, fit, and sew your dream swimsuit, and walk away with the tools you need to continue designing with knits and specialty stretch fabrics.

In Part 2 (June 3rd, 9:00am-12:00pm, 3 hours), Instructor will demonstrate proper fitting techniques, and you will fit your own body suit. You will then learn how to correct your flat patten based on the changes made during your fitting. Once corrected, your dartless bodysuit pattern block is ready for the designer touch! You will now begin creating your desired swimsuit design from your block!
