Learn to design and sew your own Renaissance/Tudor era costume! Join experienced historical clothes maker Martha Coates to learn traditional garment-making techniques adapted for modern creators. Basic men’s and women’s patterns will be provided and can be customized. Fabric choices will be discussed, but students will provide their own fabrics.
• Students will provide their own sewing machine.
• Students will be expected to know how to: use their sewing machine including threading, winding bobbins and straight stitching, cut fabric with accuracy, pin fabric together along seam lines, and be able to sew around a curved edge. Most importantly, students should sew enthusiastically and patiently!
