Carpe Diem – Sew Woven Tops, Tunics and Dresses
June 12 @ 10:30 am – June 13 @ 4:30 pm
June is the perfect time to stitch up Fit for Art’s Carpe Diem pattern to seize the day! This pattern is perfect for both wardrobe basics and fanciful tops in a variety of lengths and sleeve finishes. Join Rae and Carrie for a 2-day workshop at Artistic Artifacts in Alexandria, VA with inspirational trunk show. On day one we will get started with a fitting sample to assure you have a comfortable fit. We will spend time checking out all the many ways the top can be made for every season of the year. Bring your favorite woven fabrics from home or choose some fabrics from the excellent collection at Artistic Artifacts for your first of many Carpe Diem creations. The cropped Carpe Diem pictured was sewn in Indian hand block printed cotton; Rae trimmed the cuffs and hem with recycled trim she had hand-dyed in Judy’s summer Dye Days class. The possibilities are endless!
