000211: Quick & Easy Wardrobe Builders 1-Day Mini Retreat



Have you ever wondered how many garment pieces you could make in a day?  If you haven't you could surprise yourself with this fun-filled day of creating a dress and top to fit your style.  Yes, you can accomplish two garments in less than 8 hours as you are guided through the patterns and fitting with a quick and easy method.

The pieces are interchangeable giving you three options for wearing; a dress (or tunic), a top or a dress (tunic) with a layered top.  The combinations are endless allowing your creative side plenty of opportunity to make this your own.  Simple, straight-forward patterns can take your look from individual pieces to mix and match creative outfits.  We are pretty sure they will become your staple patterns as you grow your "me-made" wardrobe.

Join artist and teacher Debbi Crane as you explore the creative side of garment sewing with one day of sewing for three different looks.

Instructor Bio:
My name is Debbi Crane and I'm a lifelong resident of Bedford, Indiana. Like many women, I wear lot of hats - wife, mom, nana, author, student, art teacher, art maker and cashier at Lowe's. I've made many things in my life, but my current True Love is garment making. I used to be a bookbinder, but that wasn't exhibitionist enough. Why should you make your clothes? It's a lost art, a survival skill, a means of self expression, a small way you can have exactly what you want exactly how you want it, and it's super fun to say "Oh, this? I MADE IT."
