Inland Empire Chapter
Riverside & San Bernardino Regions, Southern CA
Sewing, Sharing, and Learning Among Friends
ASGIE's summer event featuring Judy Kessinger was a success!
Judy's presentation was outstanding - instructional, inspirational, approachable, and downright fun! In addition to her trunk show of 40 of her own garments, Judy discussed how to apply unique techniques to garments. The creativity from just two master patterns was amazing and can be applied to patterns you already own.
Judy measured those who were interested, and drew a miniature pattern after discussing individual fitting issues.

NG Leader Denise takes the group through the steps to a perfect fit. Each member worked on a pants pattern of their choice.
Members model their muslins and finished pants. Next they will alter their pants patterns for a new style including making stretch pants from woven, adding elastic waist to woven pants, changing leg style and more.
