Linen Short Workshop
We're thrilled to invite you to our upcoming Linen Short Workshop— an opportunity to craft your own linen shorts and learn the sewing techniques we use in our own studio. Whether you're a seasoned sewing enthusiast or beginner, this workshop promises to be a fun and rewarding experience for all skill levels.
The workshop will include step-by-step guidance on how to create our signature Linen Short; plus you will receive a detailed instruction guide and access to our pattern so that you can re-create this style at home. Your project will be pre-cut in your choice of color and size so that we can use all the workshop time to focus on creating our project.
