The Bra Class

A few months ago I learned about this lady from Wichita that teaches bra making classes.  Then I found out that the local American Sewing Guild had invited her to come to Kansas City to teach a workshop.  I hesitated at first, but eventually signed up.  Wow, I am so glad I did.  I learned so much and came away with a nice bra and a few new friends.



The first night was a fitting session and a lecture.  I was impressed by Ann St. Clair's knowledge of bra's, but also women's health and self-image.  The lecture was followed with a class.  There were two sessions and I attended the Sunday session.  It was a full day of bra making, but it went by fast.  I learned about sewing with tricot, powernet and elastic.  Ann's crew, including Kathy, were so helpful and encouraging.  I appreciated the fact that they kept everyone moving at their own pace (something that is hard to do when teaching sewing classes).  Did I mention door prizes!  I actually won something...a pattern for underwear.



I am excited to be a new member of ASG and look forward to future sewing events with them.
