Would you like to make a plaid shirt? Maybe a bold patterned dress? Matching the fabric’s print at the seams can seem challenging, but with a few tips and tricks, you can have perfectly matched prints and even get creative with your pattern matching to create something truly unique!

In our Advanced Cutting: Pattern Matching Class, learn how to successfully match patterns at key seam lines! You will create a kid’s basic shirt to get hands-on experience and then begin work on a tote bag where you will have the opportunity to get creative and use pattern matching as a design element.

This class is for you if you have been wanting to make clothing and textile goods with plaids and other prints or would like to add a new skill to your sewing practice!
