Bilingual class: Please note classes are offered primarily in French. However, we will do our very best to provide english speaking students all the explanations needed in their native language, either by dividing the group or on an individual basis... because we love and embrace Montreal's diversity :)

What you’ll learn:

  • Before noon: How to analyze and understand the structure of an existing garment and avoid rookie mistakes! Various techniques to transfer all the pieces of a garment into a pattern accurately
  • Afternoon: Techniques to add seam allowances effectively. Pattern verification techniques. Techniques to identify each piece properly.

We reserve the right to adapt the content of the course and the order of our explainations if it means offering a better assistance to our students.
