A "MUST" for those starting on the costuming journey, even if you are a great home-sewer! In Costuming Fundamentals Class you will learn how to properly flat-line, sew hooks and bars by machine as well as by hand, properly steam and press, perfect your seam allowances, properly use grainlines, and much more. In short, learn all the oh-so-important, and often-forgotten, skills that are not taught in most sewing schools and colleges these days. We highly recommend you take this class if you have never made a bodice using professional costuming techniques.
