CLASS DETAILS

The Field Of Dreams Dress sewing pattern features a fully lined, darted bodice & tiered skirt. 

In this class, we will use an indie brand pattern for the first time, and make ourselves a beautiful summery tiered dress. Choose from 5 different bodice designs for your own personalized look: narrow or wide straps, strap ruffle, a choice of necklines, high or low back, plain or button-up front. You can even choose different fabrics to create a color blocked dress. Then we’ll add the tiers to create your dream dress - from a breezy maxi to a playful mini dress.

We’ll learn how to create straps, and how to gather the tiers into ruffles - great skills to learn for future sewing projects.

Have a sewing machine collecting dust in the closet? Bring it in and we’ll get you up to speed so you can finally put it to use at home.

You’ve had an incredible sewing journey so far, and let’s keep that momentum going!
