Amy Butler's Barcelona Skirt

This is a cute A-Line skirt made by layering the fabric and leaving the edges raw so that it has a frayed look after washing.  Very cute and practical for the summer!  We will be inserting a lining, invisible zipper and hemming.  Pattern includes a Apron Overlay which can be made to 'jazz up' your new skirt.

Body Double

A Body Double is a mold of your own body (kind of like a mannequin) made with a t-shirt , packing tape and you!  If you are looking to improve your sewing, nothing beats having a body double right there to get the best fit.  Much more economical and a lot more accurate then buying a dress form.  This is a Sewtropolis service and appointments must be made in advance.  Plan on spending 2-3 hours being taped and leave with your Body Double (not recommened for use in the carpool lane)

Difficulty level: None
