Event Overview

Dress season will be here before you know it! With a few minor alterations, Stephanie of Ruby Francis Clothing will lead the class through the basics of using the sewing machine to alter a dress. Learn how to hem your garment to that perfect length. Does that dress feel more like a bag? Get tips for how to take it in for a more snug fit. Participants should bring in a dress to alter for class.

About Stephanie of Ruby Francis Clothing:
While pursuing my degree, I worked in fashion retail and fashion merchandising for almost 10 years which most likely contributes to my love of fashion design. I was taught by my mother how to sew when I was a young girl and continued to sew most of my life as a hobby until a few years ago when my hobby turned into a business and I started a clothing line, Ruby Francis Clothing. I love passing my sewing know-how onto folks willing to learn. Sewing is s great skill to have as it saves money and gives a sense of accomplishment.
