Fashion

Designers have two sessions to explore their fashion-forward creativity.

Session 1: Fashion 1 – The Quilted Body

In this class we will learn all about different forms of quilting, traditional block quilting, appliqué and crazy quilting, yo-yo piecing and trapunto (stuffed corded quilting). We’ll utilize any and all types of textiles including up-cycled clothing, trims, buttons, and embellishments. We will then apply these techniques to a unique garment that will have the opportunity to be a part of a fashion show being staged at the Minnesota Street Project gallery at the end of the summer.

Ages:

10-14

Location:

Ruth Asawa San Francisco School of the Arts (to be confirmed), 555 Portola Dr, San Francisco, CA 94131

Session 3 Fashion: Accessories – All That Pizzazz

In this class we will explore fashion accessories such as purses, belts, head pieces, statement jewelry and more. We’ll utilize traditional and nontraditional materials to create a capsule collection of 2-4 pieces that are sure to upgrade even the most simple outfit to fashionista status. A selection of the pieces made will be included in an exhibit at the Minnesota Street Project gallery in August and September 2024.
