The Charlie Caftan will be your favorite summer staple. With multiple lengths, and two different views, this pattern provides plenty of versatility to make this dress again and again. This class is great for anyone who has completed our Intro to Garment Sewing Series, and is ready for the next step, or for anyone who wants to venture into a different substrate other than quilting cottons. 

 "Nothing says summer elegance quite as well as a dramatic caftan. Get Caftan Body ready with Charlie, a fresh take on this warm weather staple."

Level: Confident Beginner 

This is a good class for developing your skills as a confident beginner. If you know how to sew a straight line, can follow a seam allowance, and have recent experience using a sewing machine, you are ready for this class. We will briefly review the use of the Bernette sewing machines in our sewing salon at the beginning of the class. You should come to class with your pattern traced or cut out, and your fabric laundered for best results. 

Price: $105.00
This includes up to ten hours of instruction in a small group setting, use of our machines and equipment in the sewing salon, the required interfacing, and a copy of the Closet Core Charlie Caftan pattern. Fabric for the caftan will need to be purchased, and will include a 20% discount if bought from Chateau Sew. The fabric requirements for this pattern range from 2.25 5 to 4 yards depending on size, view, and width of fabric purchased. The physical pattern includes US sizes 0 to 20. Should you want to make extended sizes, please contact Laura!
