Trisha Smith: Jordan's Beach Dress and Lily's Sailor Dress



Join Trisha Smith in this hands-on class to complete 2 amazing projects, Jordan's Beach Dress and Lily's Sailor Dress. Learn new techniques or hone old ones from one of the best in the industry.

Jordan's Beach Dress
This dress has a cross over front bodice with a back closure and is accented with sweet corded piping.  The full flowing skirt is lined, with very little extra time involved.  You will learn how to make two different types of plackets that fit together beautifully.  The hemline is accented with a contrasting bodice fabric, as is the lower edge of the bodice.  The edges of the contrasting bodice fabric are embellished with a small ruffle using a technique called ruching.  You will love how quick and easy it is to create these ruffles.  This dress is available in sizes 3-12 years and you will receive the pattern for all sizes in class.




Lily's Sailor Dress

Sailor dresses never go out of style and are a favorite to many. This waisted bodice dress has a white collar that is accented with soutache braid trim and the traditional tie. The bodice is made complete with beautiful covered buttons as Trisha teaches you just how easy they are to make (once you know some tips). This dress might look quite simple, but you will be surprised how many fine sewing skills you will learn while constructing it. Just to mention a few, Trisha will teach you how to work with fusible interfacing with the greatest of ease. And, if you have ever tried to make beautiful corded piping using a dot fabric, you know just how difficult that is to accomplish. Well, after this class you will make beautiful dotted piping every time. This pattern is sized 2 – 12 and you will receive all sizes in class. Even though it is being called a sailor dress, it would also be great as a top for the older girls when paired with Capri pants.
