This is the first Ode to Joy Border Tunic<\/em><\/strong><\/a>\u00a0 I made working through an on-line class offerred\u00a0 by Maggie Bunch. It is a fabulous class for everyone from\u00a0 beginners to experienced smockers.\u00a0 Maggie takes you from border print fabric selection, to pleating, to construction and smocking.\u00a0 But she throws in so many little informational gems and tips.\u00a0 I learned so much. You may provide your own fabric or she offers some darling kits.\u00a0 She will even pleat for you if you like.<\/p>\n

This class is a bargain at $30. Maggie practically holds your hand through the whole process and answers any questions promptly. To the best of my knowledge, this is just the second time in the last 12 months that it has been offered on-line. She did teach it at that great sewing event, Sewing at the Beach.<\/p>\n

Maggie said on-line. ” This is an online sewing and smocking lesson, held in a private group, here on FB. The fee for the lesson is $30.00. Kits are optional. You can sew from your stash! I post a lesson a day for about 2 weeks. The Group stays open for about 8 weeks after the lesson is complete for you to sew at your own pace. Sizes are 1\/2 3\/4 5\/6 and 7\/8<\/span><\/span>“<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The first time round, I didn’t print out the instructions and files. So when I made my second dress<\/a>, a lot of mistakes were made. Note the sloppy neck binding.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So I am repeating the class and you can be sure that I will keep notes and files. Now you, too, can take this class! The pattern is not available for sale, just as part of the class.<\/p>\n

Through the years, several readers have commented on my smocked garments, saying they wish they knew how to smock. Few live within easy driving distance of classes so this is a great option. <\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Other than wanting to learn more, I have no vested interested in this class. I just want to share a great learning opportunity with you all.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
