Sewing Patterns Decoded – Commercial And Indie

Indie and Commercial Sewing
Have you ever wanted to use patterns but became wholly lost when looking at the back cover? Then this is the class for you! Why do the symbols and cutting guide look like a foreign language?

I will teach you about measurements, indie vs. commercial, fabric choices, and more! Once you cut your fabric, you commit to the shape/size. Let me help it become less intimidating.

Notebook and pen
Sewing measuring tape (at least 60″)

Information sheet
Measurement guide
