I want to learn couture techniques to up my game. I taught my self to sew out of necessity in middle school. Growing up we would rummage the after hour donations that were dropped off behind our local thrift store, sadly even the thrift store prices were too much for us, and the free store that was in a basment of a church on Fridays and Saturdays. Needless to say as a middle schooler I wanted to keep those secrets hiden so I started to “redo” the clothes we were able to get and/or resue the fabric they were made of. Most of my sewing was done by hand until a friend of my Mom’s gifted me her old sewing machine my freshmen year of highschool. Given the circumstances that I learned under always struggled with the details. I know that learning these techniques will bring my sewing to the next level.
I want to learn couture techniques so I can learn new techniques and sew beautiful clothes for my daughter’s dolls. I am also thinking of selling doll clothing on Etsy and would love to hone my skills.
I want to learn couture techniques so I can become the seamstress extraordinaire that I always knew I could be . . . or at the very least better than I already am, lol.
I want to be inspired. Your website and classes offer creative ways to go to the next level. I am always looking for more ideas….things to challenge my creative juices …get me to be more productive. I live quality designs and take pride in my workmanship.
I want to learn couture techniques to improve my sewing skills and the end product. I’ve learned an amazing amount from Design Academy and Pattern Academy and this course would be just as informative. Thank you .
