Judy Kessinger started her career owning and operating a small retail fabric store in Louisville, Kentucky. For 25 years she traveled nationwide holding seminars for Hancock Fabrics. In the last year, she has fine tuned her special art of teaching her students how to fit themselves for a slimmer look. In the process, she developed two patterns, tops and pants. An entire wardrobe can be made from just these two patterns. Judy is looking forward to following her passion to teach the home seamstress how to take the STRESS out
of seamstress!
Judy's classes include:
Sew Slim Pants Your customers
won't believe how comfortable these pants feel! After having
their measurements taken, they will learn how to draft a pattern
that ONLY fits them, sew the pants together, and alter any arrears
that need fixing. They will apply a draw-cord elastic that I
lovingly call my buffet waist! After completing this 6 hour class,
they will be ready to sew up a wardrobe of pants; Capri's and
shorts-all from the same perfect fit class! And the best part----they
will look 10 pounds slimmer without giving up chocolate!
Sew Slim Top-Ready- Set-Sew!!!! Your customers
will have your measurements personally recorded for only you!!
Then draft the pattern, sew the shoulder seams and the fun begins.
You will learn three different necklines to use in your FIRST
knit top, how to put in sleeves and the finishing. And all this
in 4 hours!
Jacket-2-Tote Yes, you read that right!
Your customers will learn how to draft a new pattern from the
Sew Slim Top. They will then make and line a jacket and insert
a separating zipper. The finishing touch---it all can be turned
in to a tote bag! This is a six hour class!
A SEW INSPIRING TRUNK SHOW Your customers will receive a 90 minute show that will both excite and inspire them sew more! I will be showing an entire wardrobe from just two patterns. This show will highlight creative touches given to garments and how to achieve a "store bought look". I encourage your customers to bring their cameras.
