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 3 (June 10th, 9:00am-1:00pm, 4 hours), you will continue with drafting your final design, and begin cutting into your final fashion fabrics. You will then begin to sew your swimsuit using a straight stitch sewing machine, and overlock machine, as well as applying learned techniques for adding elastic and other finishings to your suit.
