In our Advanced Leotards class, those who already know how to sew leotards and other stretch fabrics will learn new techniques. You will learn how to easily add cut-outs, insets, how to re-work necklines, layer various stretch fabrics, and how to add mesh or stretch lace uppers. Everyone will start with a basic “block” or “sloper” and will develop their own pattern design. Our Advanced Designs Leotards class is taught from a professional, performance point of view. You will learn techniques for better fit and ease of adjustment, even when used for the most difficult choreography. For those who have not yet used a coverstitch machine with a binding attachment, we will show you how it is done and give you tips for cleaner coverstitch work. Prerequisite: You must have already made a few leotards (one is not enough!). You must already be comfortable and proficient on a serger.
