Make the shirt of your dreams, as you enjoy "everyday couture" sewing practices and innovative design options.
Throughout this online course you’ll be treated to the best of the best:
- Clearly demonstrated, precision sewing techniques for easy learning and consistent success;
- Design options that enhance your shirt’s comfort, ease of construction, and style;
- A complete online sewing tutorial, with insight, guidance, and detailed instructions at each step in your shirtmaking process.
Follow along as Cynthia constructs two different shirts in parallel: a standard woman’s shirt with a shirt-tail hem, breast pocket, collar on a stand and long, cuffed sleeves (choose your favorite shirt pattern); and her own shirt design (pattern included with this course), which features a straight hem with length options, front pockets lowered to the hipline for ease of use and a more flattering look (with a banded button closure), sleeves cut with the back of the arm on the bias, adding to comfort and movement, slot buttonholes, created as part of the seamline, a hidden placket option, a perfectly curved, flattering collar on a band and much, much more. She’ll share options, too: three different sleeve plackets, a variety of pocket styles and applications. Plus every detail needed to complete both shirts to perfection in this comprehensive, online course.
A downloadable pattern for Cynthia's original design is included with the course.
Approximate running time: 6 hours 45 mins.
