Program
We will be starting our Yoke dresses! We will tear our skirts, mark our armhole curves, pleat the skirts and learn how to block them.
Anything we do not finish this month will be continued into September. If you have a pleater and are comfortable pleating for people, please bring
your pleater and be ready to pleat. The more pleaters we have, the better.
Supplies
You will need to bring your Basic Yoke Dress pattern, fabric - pre-washed, dried and ironed, buttons, plate, floss, lace or trim you will be using.

You will need a finished dress length measurement. This meaurement is taken from the high point on the shoulder - where the neck meets the shoulder - to the length you want the dress to be. Do not add hem allowances, etc. to this measurement.
We will have a little Show & Share of everyone's choices before we start work.
