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. All views have a slightly dropped shoulder, angled shoulder yoke and roomy fit, with a choice between an elegant bias binding or a faced neckline finish. My favorite thing about this pattern is that it can be made in a wide range of fabrics, and they all look great. Pick a linen blend or chambray for more structure or rayon, Tencel or even silk for a drapier effect if you’re feeling more comfortable with your cutting and sewing skills. In class we will go over different ways of finishing seam allowances, bias binding vs. facings and what works best depending on your fabric choice and skill level.

Instructor: | Erin Hubner |
Instructor Bio: | Erin learned to sew as a kid and was always crafty but didn't really get fully into sewing until after college. After making a few rather involved Halloween costumes she realized she could make clothes to wear every day, not just at the end of October. Eventually this led to her going back to school for fashion design and construction and teaching classes for over 6 years. Her main focus may be garment sewing, but she has also worked on accessories, home decor and quilting. Basically, if it involves fabric, thread, yarn, or other similar craft supplies she probably does it on a semi regular basis. Except projects involving hot glue, she does try to stay away from those. |
