August: Garment Cloning
Our Garment Cloning class teaches you how to recreate a favorite piece from your wardrobe by turning an existing garment into a reusable sewing pattern! Over four weeks, you will learn the fundamentals of pattern tracing, garment analysis, fabric selection, and construction techniques while carefully deconstructing and replicating the fit and details of the chosen piece.
With guidance from instructors, students will draft pattern pieces directly from their garment, cut new fabric, and sew a custom version from start to finish. This course is ideal for students who want to better understand how clothing is made while building confidence in patternmaking and garment construction.
Participants should have basic sewing machine experience and familiarity with simple garment assembly. By the end of the class, students will leave with both a finished recreated garment and a custom pattern they can use again in the future.
A supply list will be sent out upon registering for the class. We have basic sewing supplies available to borrow in the space. Students are given access to the studio for the entire month of their class from 10am-6pm, Monday-Friday, and 9-2pm on Saturdays.
