In this intermediate-level course, students will sew 3–5 versatile garments that form the foundation of a personalized capsule wardrobe. Emphasis will be placed on selecting a cohesive color and style palette that reflects individual aesthetics and lifestyle needs. Participants will learn how to choose and adapt commercial patterns to ensure fit, function, and harmony across pieces. Garments may include tops, bottoms, layering pieces, and dresses, with a focus on timeless silhouettes and mix-and-match potential. This class is ideal for sewists ready to elevate their skills and create a wardrobe that’s both stylish and sustainable.  Out first class will be going over what a capsule is and how to create it, after that we will move to the sewing portion!
