_Our most popular class. New & improved, 3hr classes each week for 4
consecutive weeks._Have you always wanted to know how to create your
own patterns that fit perfectly? Fashion designers often use a process
called “draping” to create perfectly fitted patterns on the dress
form. It is easy to learn and a useful skill to have.
Learn to drape muslin fabric over a dress form and pin it into place,
gently manipulating the fabric around the form. Once the fabric is
draped, the key measurements and fit lines are marked to record the
basic pattern shape.
In this Mood U 4-Week Draping Basics Part 1 Course you will learn will
the fundamental rules of draping on the dress form. Creating basic
patterns for a bodice, skirt & dress. Students will be guided in
transferring their draped muslin onto pattern paper and fine tuning
their pattern shapes. At the completion of the 4-week course, students
will have finished both muslin drape work and paper patterns. We will
guide you in achieving a perfect fit and finish with all your patterns
to use as a basis for future projects and Mood U workshops.

HOW DO I KNOW WHAT LEVEL I SHOULD START AT?
_BEGINNER DRAPING CLASSES_ are for students who have no previous
experience, or have a little experience but have not draped in a while
and wish to refresh their beginner knowledge.
_INTERMEDIATE DRAPING CLASSES_ are for students who have had some
experience with draping on the dress form and wish to take their
skills to the next level.
_ADVANCED DRAPING CLASSES_ are for students who have had a reasonable
amount of experience and wish to expand their skills whilst working on
a custom project.
All of our classes at every level are very social and a lot of
students continue to return to keep learning but also to enjoy the
social aspect.
CAN I SWITCH CLASSES?
Currently all levels of draping courses run once per week. We ask you
to make sure the scheduled class time works with your weekly schedule.
