Current Classes at Pacific Fabrics

The Cielo Dress & Top is an easy, breezy take on a boxy tee and shift dress. Loaded with interesting details and interchangeable features, it will fast become a wardrobe-building favorite. Choose between a semi-cropped top with a cuffed short sleeve or a dramatic gathered long sleeve. Or make an easy-fitting dress with sleek inseam pockets or without and your choice of sleeves.

In this class you will learn how to work with water resistant fabrics like oilcloth, waxed canvas and laminated cotton. Along the way you will learn how to do French seams and boxed corners to give your bag a clean interior and added structure.

The Pietra Pants & Shorts are the best of both worlds; a flat front, high-waisted silhouette with the comfort of an elastic waist in the back. Featuring lengthening panels in the front with slanted hip pockets and a hidden waist stay, they are so comfortable you?ll never want to take them off. Choose between four leg styles: a wide leg in floor-skimming or cropped length, a slim and tapered leg, or gently flared shorts. Fit is always important, especially with pants, so we will start off the first day of class sewing a test version to try on and see if any adjustments are needed to the be made to the pattern to fit you better. Once we?re satisfied with the fit, we will start working on our final versions confident that when completed our pants (or shorts) will look amazing. Prerequisite: Sewing 201 or equivalent experience.
