Join us in beautiful Eureka Springs, Arkansas for a personalized sewing experience. In this workshop, you'll dive into a set of skills that center around the art of modern garment sewing with an artistic edge. Work intimately with two nationally-known instructors, Linda Lee of The Sewing Workshop and Nancy Shriber, founder of Contemporary Sashiko.

In this workshop week, you will construct a three-piece ensemble consisting of a lined jacket, tank and pants. Linda will share her in-depth technical skills for the best construction results and Nancy will guide you through a creative experience to enhance your work.

You will begin by bag-dyeing silk charmeuse yardage, provided as part of the class fee. With some stenciled, stamped and stitched embellishments, your silk will be ready to use as a lining for your jacket. You will learn how to make a lining pattern when one is not included in the pattern, how to "bag the lining", tips and tricks for working with slippery silk, how to make perfect mtered corners and how to construct lovely bindings for simple tops and tanks in both knis and wovens.

You will enjoy a trunk show of Sewing Workshop ensembles by Linda and artistic work by Nancy. Linda will assist in making sure your patterns fit, and she will demonstrate construction techniques pertinent to the patterns being used. Nancy will add the artistic elements to the workshop with her expertise in dyeing and hand stitching one-of-a-kind garments.
