Happy Pants

(baggy back). Learn to fit YOUR waist, hips, and thighs and

tissue-fitting and crotch oddities for fine-tuning fit. Pati
has nearly 40 years experience in hands-on pant fitting and
will share tips for fitting and sewing your own jeans.

# 2012 Pati Palmer, Marta Alto, and
Nancy Seifert Workshop:
Tissue-Fitting, Live!
The pioneers in perfecting
tissue-fitting patterns to your body will fit 3 people from
the audience to show how the process works. (Wear a camisole
if you’d like to be chosen) Each teacher will fit one person
with the other teachers doing the altering as you watch
close-ups on the screen. You will see the altered tissue
back on the student for the final check. For one of the
students, the front and back will be cut out in fabric for a
quick fabric pin fit. Some changes may be needed in fabric
since our left and right sides may vary.
Thursday, 2:00 - 4:30 pm
Room B

#3047 Palmer/Pletsch
Certified Instructor Katrina Walker Workshop:
Successful Sewing With Silk
Silk is the most beautiful of
natural fibers, sensuously soft, shimmering, and so
comfortable to wear. It can also be very simple to cut and
sew, using stabilizers and specialty seams. Learn how to sew
beautiful French seams and narrow hems on chiffon, flat-fell
seams on dupioni, Hong Kong seam finishes, and more, as you
build a sample notebook. Appropriate pattern selection and
use for fabrics and silk fabric vocabulary will also be
discussed.
Friday, 11:00 am - 1:30 pm
Pfaff Classroom, Expo Hall
