Course Overview: 

Have you ever thought about how nice it would be to have help cutting out your items? Maybe it’s time for you to look at adding a cutting machine to your wish list. Maybe you already have one, but it’s still in the box. Maybe you’ve heard a little about them but haven’t decided if they are worth the investment.

This month, we will look at a few basic projects and uses for a cutting machine as it applies to items for your doll to help you decide if a cutting machine is a good addition to your doll sewing and crafting world. We’ll use the Braided Sandals pattern by Genniewren Designs to create a shoebox from paper and also cut some thicker materials to create the shoes. We’ll learn about cutting HTV that can be applied to t-shirts or totebags. And we’ll wrap it all up with a discussion on cutting fabric using the Peplum Top by Liberty Jane Clothing.

Join us for a month of information and fun and let your creative ideas blossom into wonderful projects you might not have considered without this tool!

What Is Haute Couture?

Simply put, Haute Couture is exclusive, custom-fitted fashion constructed largely by hand. It's a dedication to quality, perfection, and excellence; couture also tackles unique design challenges with creative solutions, and focuses intently on details.

Couture garments are marked by gorgeous, luxurious fabrics; strong designs; creative use of basic construction techniques; extensive inner support; and a dedication to craftsmanship and precision throughout. Experienced and capable sewers (who are called mains -- the French word for "hand") spend hours constructing, pressing, basting, and fitting these garments. A true haute couture garment can take hundreds of hours to create, and cost in the tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. In this respect, couture is definitely an art form.

In France, the phrase haute couture (which just means "high sewing") is regulated by strict standards; for a garment or house to be called "haute couture" requires extensive certification and approval by the ChambreSyndicale de la Haute Couture. Currently there are only a handful of certified couture houses in Paris; in the past, there were about 200. In other parts of the world, the term “couture” is used more loosely to refer to high-fashion garments.

One step below couture is called "Luxury Ready-To-Wear" (prêt-à-porter in French). Ready-to-wear garments often feature extensive machine sewing, quicker construction methods, and a more generalized fit. They still often feature fabulous materials and outstanding designs, but the customized, hand-embellished and finished couture bit isn’t there. Ready to wear also usually looks more like our expectations of a "finished" garment, including linings, facings and, occasionally, serged seam allowances. By contrast, a couture garment can appear unfinished on the inside; while linings are used in couture garments, it’s also not uncommon to see hand-overcast seam allowances, stays, and other structural components. Every aspect of a couture garment has been engineered for the correct hang and shaping of the garment, rather than for hanger appeal or expediency.

Most garments in America that are marketed as "couture" are actually much more like ready-to-wear garments, rather than true haute couture. This blurring of the lines between couture and ready-to-wear is a marketing thing. For the purposes of this class, we’ll focus on the Parisian tradition of couture, and then examine its application to doll clothing, as well as mention pertinent ready-to-wear techniques.

Natural Fabric Dyes Course Overview: I'm excited to share some fun and easy techniques for creating uniquely dyed fabrics as well as some more involved methods for using and creating dyes from natural elements. Throughout the course of this topic, we will cover many issues that arise when working with dyes, such as the proper equipment to have on hand, the recommended fabric choices, and garment creation from this new fabric. As we demo each technique and dye method we will apply these things and work through the issues that arise, together.

I'm also joined by instructor Gina Levesque. More about Gina... Artist Gina Levesque has been working in traditional fiber arts since a young girl. Gina works with natural dye stuffs, weaving, rug hooking, spinning, and traditional penny rug construction. Due to her love of the outdoors and training as a biologist, she finds the natural world to be the greatest influence on her work. She remains true to the roots of these traditional fiber arts by incorporating some recycled materials into her finished pieces. Many times she works with wool to create her one-of-a-kind pieces.

As an instructor, she has conducted classes, workshops, demonstrations, and given lectures on natural dyes at various locations throughout the country. She has taught classes in natural dyeing and shibori at numerous venues in places like Oklahoma, Indiana, Tennessee, and Kansas. 

Her fiber art business, Across Generations, provides supplies and beginning projects to those interested in rug hooking, penny rugs, and natural dyeing. Gina holds memberships in The Tulsa Rug Hooking Guild, The Tulsa Handweavers Guild, Murrell Home Fiber Arts Guild, and Natural Dyes International.

We're super excited to have her show us the basics in Parts 3 and 4!

The topic will be divided into four sessions:

Sewing The Silk Road Dress Course Overview:

Download the 4-part blog series, originally featured in Sewing With CInnamon, as a PDF. The content and video links are all in the PDF.

When we launched this topic, Christmas was only a few short weeks away. It seemed like the perfect opportunity to take a closer look at wraps. Instead of wrapped packages, however, we will explore the topic of wrapped garments. 

The pattern that goes along woth this course is available separately. Here's a bit more about the Silk Road Dress:

“The Silk Road” is a unique double-wrapped dress pattern that was inspired by an ancient Chinese design and will only be available to Sewing with Cinnamon subscribers through the month of December. It is a quick and easy pattern to sew that lends itself well to adaptation, making it a great project for holiday gift-giving.

For this course, I'm excited to announce that Shari Fuller, the designer of the Thimbles and Acorns brand, will be my co-host! In part one, she will walk you through the pattern with a sew-along video and over the next installments Shari and I will each share a fun pattern hack to help get your creative juices flowing. We are really excited to see all of your projects!

The topic will be divided into four sessions:

• Part 1: Sew Along For The Silk Road Dress
• Part 2: Pattern Hack 1, with Cinnamon
• Part 3: Pattern Hack 2, with Shari
• Part 4: Happy Holidays!

About The Curriculum: You will receive a PDF course guide with information and video download links. The content for the course is broken down into a four-part series, each with in-depth video instruction. The videos can be streamed online or downloaded for offline viewing.

Hand Sewing Mastery Course Overview: This is such an important skill to master so that you have the confidence to finish your garments and project well every time! 

Shari Fuller, the designer of the Thimbles and Acorns brand, will be my co-host! She has spent years perfecting the art of hand sewing and includes many different uses in her pattern collection. We are both really excited to present this topic to you and hope that this course will provide you with the skillset and motivation to sew the hand-sewn seams beautifully!

The topic will be divided into four sessions:

• Part 1: Topic Overview, Hand Sewing Sampler Project
• Part 2: How To Apply Sew-On Snaps, and Sewing Snaps under Buttons
• Part 3: Hand Sewn Buttons and Buttonholes
• Part 4: Hand Sewing as an Embellishment

We'll be demonstrating these methods as basic tutorial exercises on small scraps of fabric as well as showing examples on both Liberty Jane and Thimbles and Acorns designs to help illustrate how the basic techniques and methods are used at a smaller scale. Follow along to understand the process, hopefully watching us in action will clarify any concerns or issues you may have with these types of techniques.

Over this four-part topic, we will take a look at different types of swim fabrics, the stitch types that work best, the recommended needles and machine settings, stress-saving tips like the use of fold-over elastic, sewing swimsuits with woven fabrics, and of course teeny tiny accessories to complete the look!
