Inspired by the simplicity of Japanese style, we use a pattern in the classic Japanese sewing book, Simple Modern Sewing, to learn to sew a raglan sleeve top. The four-hour workshop will decipher a Japanese sewing pattern, adding seam allowances and notches.  Choose sleeve length and style. You’ll learn how to finish seams, sew an elastic casing, and press your garment.

Ages 12 and up are welcome, some sewing experience is necessary.
