I have been sewing for many years and would love to learn couture techniques to enhance my work and I love learning new ways! I just think I would enjoy this so much as I am retired and have soo much time to learn. Thank you for your generosity you give so much.
Although I have basic sewing skills done, being able to take this class would enable me to greatly improve the skills I have learned on my own. My main purpose for wanting this course is to learn construction techniques that will improve the doll clothing I make for my great niece’s AG dolls. She loves what I do but I want to do better.
I want to learn couture techniques so I can prove that my dreams can come true and I can have an online business with professional-looking, handmade items. When one door closes, a window opens.
I have taken a lot of sewing classes and have made a few clothing and house ware which were bigger pieces. Doll clothes are smaller and more detailed and this would be something that I can add to my learning of sewing for advancement for myself and grand girls. They are 2, 4, 6 and 8. I think this would be a nice addition to my sewing experiences and maybe my little ladies would also learn the tradition that you teach and pass it on to their young ladies. This could also include dresses and accessories for their children as well as dolls.
I’ve been making no frills Barbie clothes and AG doll clothes forever. Now it’s time for a new challenge. I ‘ve moved on to making cloth “Diva” dolls and they need dresses, coats, hats, shoes, corsets…a complete couture wardrobe! I want to learn couture techniques because sadly my current sewing technique is quite basic. I’ve always known that when the inside of a garment is as nicely finished as the outside, then you know it is well and thoughtfully made. I’d love to win this class. My Diva dolls and I thank you for the chance to win!
