Sewing III: Persephone Pant (VIRTUAL)

Based on photographs of men's 1920s-'40s US navy sailor pants, the Persephone Pants are a flattering and unique addition to your wardrobe! These pants are unique in that they do not contain side seams--each leg is cut from one piece. With stylish details such as a high waist, front inseam pockets, and two back waist-shaping darts, this pattern is a perfect excuse to try out the cropped, wide leg pant trend. Along with learning how to read and cut out a pattern, you'll get experience constructing belt loops, buttonholes, and pockets.  Pattern includes a high rise, cropped, wide leg pant that hits a couple of inches above the ankle.  Skills Learned- How to read a sewing pattern- Taking measurements + selecting size- Cutting and marking patterns- Staystitching- Pocket construction- Buttonhole construction- Proper pressing- Interfacing- Hemming This class is geared toward students with previous sewing and garment construction experience.
