JACKETS - LOOSENED UP WORKSHOP

Fairfield Inn - Lake Oswego, Oregon
Workshop Fee: $725
Includes:
- 5 days of design, fitting and sewing instruction
- lunch each day
- instructional materials
REGISTRATION FORM
I love sewing tailored, lined jackets – welt pockets, bound buttonholes, shoulder pads – all of it. But
life today is usually more relaxed and casual than that. So let's loosen up and make some jackets that we
can wear everyday - jeans jackets with lots of topstitching, unlined jackets with casual closures like zippers
or snaps, short and swingy styles or long, slouchy boyfriend jackets.
Try dolman or raglan sleeves instead of set-in sleeves , patch pockets instead of welt pockets, hong kong seam
finishes instead of lining, binding edges in place of facings and hems and loop closures instead of bound buttonholes.
Is your style avant garde or traditional with a twist? There's a style out there for you. Choose any jacket pattern and let's have fun.
We will start with the basics of fit and construction and then focus on the details of design. Plan your pattern and
fabric or come a day early and spend the day shopping Portland's famous fabric stores. (see "Optional Shopping Day" below)
Space is limited to 6 students to ensure individual attention. A $50 non-refundable deposit will reserve a space for you.
The workshop will be held at the Fairfield Inn & Suites - Portland South/Lake Oswego,
located at 6100 SW Meadows Road, Lake Oswego OR 97035. Accommodations are available at the Fairfield Inn or other
nearby hotels. Contact the Fairfield Inn directly at 503-670-7557 or 800-228-2800, or visit
www.fairfieldinn.com to make a reservation.
You may bring your own sewing machine or arrange with Marla to borrow one.
Workshops begin at 9:00 AM and finish each day at 5:30 PM. The classroom is available to you in the evening and will be locked securely overnight.
Lunch is included each day. There are many restaurants within walking distance for dinner on your own.
OPTIONAL SHOPPING DAY
An optional shopping day on Wednesday, September 14, will give you an opportunity to visit many of the fabulous fabric stores
in Portland – Josephine's, Fabric Depot, Mill End and others. Shop for the perfect fabric for your class project or
add an irresistible piece to your stash. Lunch will be included and we'll shop 'til we drop! The fee for this optional day is $75.
