Trisha Smith: Two Projects in Three Days



Join Trisha Smith in this hands on class to complete 2 projects in 3 days. Trisha will teach you many sewing techniques as you make your creation including tips on how to make gathering easier and how to make her wonderful "Perfect Puckerless Placket." Come join the Experience.  The 2 projects include the Charlotte-Bodice Overlay Dress and Harper's - Sassy & Stylish Dress

Charlotte- Bodice Overlay Dress
Get started on your Easter dress early this year as Trisha teaches you how to make this lovely elegant dress.  The front bodice overlay and back bodice are made from a beautiful eyelet fabric.  The lower edge of the front curved overlay is accented with a 3" wide gathered embroidered edging.  The dress front has a high yoke under the eyelet overlay and the dress back has an empire bodice that closes with beautiful mother of pearl buttons.  The bodice is made complete with sweet embroidered edging angel sleeves.  To tie it all together, the lower edge of the dress is accented using the same edging without gathers. She will love spinning in this dress with its full flowing skirt.  this dress pattern is available in sizes 2-10 and you will receive all sizes in class.


Harper's - Sassy & Stylish Dress
This classic a-line shift style dress has modern flare with its cut out scalloped neckline.  The neck cutouts and armhole edges are bound with Liberty shaped bias binding, which adds to the ease of constructing this garment and is a major focal pint.  The dress buttons down the back and is fully lined.  The fashion and lining fabrics are hemmed separately opening up new learning opportunities.  Additional charm is added with the scalloped shape mitered bias tube that accents the hemline.  Trisha will teach you just how easy it is to use a bias tape marker.   The sides seams have a 3" slit which is made complete with a turn cord bow.  This stylish dress is great for older girls yet still sweet enough for the younger ones. The pattern is sized 5-12 years and you will receive all sizes in class.
