PFI sez: Let’s draft a hood pattern. Arwen Hood shown.
Hey, it rains here. And it’s cold. Having a hood is just a good, Portland idea. Here are free instructions from PFI to draft three different kinds of hood patterns: Standard, Balaclava and Arwen. You can then sew a stylish hood to any garment you own. Or just keep it separate. Grab it anytime you need protection from the weather.
Click here for your instructions.

The snow is melting and we are open. Store is open. Classes are back as scheduled. Let’s sew!

Here’s a little tip from this Friday’s activewear class with Suzi. Don’t have a serger for stretchy fabrics? Use the seed stitch on your machine. (It looks like a little lightning bolt ⚡️). Your stitches will stretch with the fabric and won’t break.

New Spring classes coming soon!

We’re so happy that Jena is teaching Graphic Design for us again. She’s a director at Pinecrest Fabrics where they print and dye on stretch and technical fabrics — even material made from recycled plastic bottles. Take her class and you will end up printing your own fabric yardage. She makes coming up with beautiful prints as easy as:
1 — Doing your research
2 — Controlling Adobe
3 — Turning your prints into fabulous garments.
Just saying, the link is in the bio #design #classes
