Pattern Reading, Layout and Drafting at Rosewood Art Centre

| $35Pattern Reading, Layout and Drafting
Teen/ Adult
Pattern reading and layout is my favorite. Come learn the history of pattern sizing, how to take your measurements, how to read the pattern, popular symbols, tips on buying patterns and much more.
And as a special bonus we have added an extra hour to this class to draft a simple A line skirt pattern.
Supplies to bring, note pad, pen or pencil and a tape measure if you have one.
This is a 3 hour class.
