Hawke Reache A&S January Garb Construction

January has arrived!
A&S is scheduled to be a 2-part program this month.

Part I, Friday Jan 22nd 7:00PM
This is the Prep Class.
We will be looking at some basic patterns, taking measurements, and laying out patterns on paper to those measurements.
We will also discuss fabric and color choices, where to obtain fabric and how much you’ll need.
We can also discuss how long each item takes to make in the real world (ie, your living room or kitchen) vs how long it’s likely to take in a class situation, and work out the schedule for what is being done in the hands-on day.
If you can, please bring a pen or pencil, folder, and tape measure (I’ll have several tape measures available)
***Homework assignment: go fabric shopping!
Part II, Saturday Jan 30, 10am
This is the Hands-on Class
If you have a sewing machine that you can bring, this is Highly Encouraged as it is better to learn on the machine you’ll use regularly, and I can tailor instruction as needed.
We expect to begin PROMPTLY at 10AM, by the clock, not “SCAdian time”.
For each item being made, we will lay out fabric, cut it, prepare it for sewing, and then sew/construct the garment.
Please plan to be with us the whole day. If you can not, and know in advance, I will try to accommodate requests for what order things are done in.
At some point we will break for lunch and dinner, both of which are potluck, please bring something to share! (preferably not something greasy, you don’t want to get oil on your new clothes before you get to wear them!)
Please RSVP to Michele the Ubiquitous.

Recommend you only purchase a one way ticket. I may be able to arrange for a ride to Hicksville station on the way back (more trains, cheaper fare). No guarantees.
