Wonderful Petticoat Ideas for Babies and Toddlers
One Day Course (Friday, March 30)
In this class, Jeannie will guide you through the steps needed to draft your own A-Line or Yoke slip using your dress pattern. You will learn which slip style best suits your garment and lots of wonderful ways to embellish your petticoat. Different hem, neck and armhole finishes will be explored as you work on a petticoat in class. You will learn about hems with ruffles, lace and tucks, including a growth tuck! The yoke finishes include bias facing, lace, buillon picot and shell hem. Featherstitching is the classic embroidery stitch used on petticoats and several designs suited for them will be included in this class. You will leave class with sample stitches, a handout full of ideas and a slip that is well on the way to being complete!
