  Drape your own Knit Block
         (bodice and sleeves)


Creating a knit bodice and sleeve blocks will change your relationship with stretchy garments.  Join Pattern Making Guru Lynda Maynard on 02/16/20 and learn how to drape and draft a custom knit block, using your own measurements.  

You will be able to use your bodice block to create t-shirts, tunics, camisoles, tank tops, bodycon dresses, and more, that fit your body to a "t."

Draping may sound intimidating but it is actually one of the easiest ways to do create a custom block that works.

Level: This small group workshop is perfect for the beginner who sews and is excited to enter the world of jersey knits, or someone looking to improve their pattern making game. No previous pattern making experience required. Lynda will provide lots of guidance and hand-holding, every step of the way.

Instructor: Lynda Maynard is an Expert at Couture Sewing, Fitting and Patternmaking. She is also an accomplished Author. She has over 20 years of teaching experience and every single one of her students raves about her personality, approach and passion. To read more about Lynda and her accomplishments, click here.
