In this class you'll get to hem your garments so that they fall where you want them to on your body, instead of wherever the manufacturer decided they should. Bring a garment or two that you'd like to hem, and you'll learn the basics of hemming in a fun, supportive environment.For this class, please only bring lightweight or midweight garments like pants, chinos, shorts, button-up shirts, skirts, and dresses.
