1st 4 weeks: Bump/Panel skirts:
The first four weeks Lydia will take you through drafting a basic pattern for your skirt, then sewing your skirt. Depending on your chosen fabric, style/fullness this may include features such as hemming and sewing French seams, as well as attaching your panels to an elastic waist band. This class will require basic machine sewing. BYO sewing machine ideally, as Lydia will only be bringing one to class with a limited number of places for students without machines.
2nd 4 weeks: Pasties and headpieces:
The second half of this term Lydia will take you through tips and tricks for creating different styles of pasties, including creating fun shapes, and pastie bases covered with fabric to match a costume. We will also create a basic showgirl headdress, and accessories built on a slide comb base. Lydia will supply an amount of craft foam, but you are welcome to bring your own if you want a specific colour. The tricks you learn can be applied to other materials once you've practiced with craft foam. Lydia will also have a supply of headbands and combs. BYO glue gun and glue sticks!
