www.gbacg.org/Current/OneHourDress.htm

Need a new dress to wear to the Art Deco Society's Gatsby Summer Afternoon or the Silent Film Festival? Join us on July 22 and make a dress in a day!

In the 1920s many books and magazine articles were dedicated to sewing a frock fast. Using period references, Bridget Bradley-Scaife will show you the fabulously simple techniques that go into making yourself a quick and beautiful 1920's dress. Students will learn how to measure, construct and personalize their frock with design elements used on dresses of the 1920's.

Each student will receive handouts and a CD. A supply list that includes suggested fabric and trim yardage will be sent to each student prior to class.

Location: Language Sciences Institute (LSI), 2015 Center Street, Berkeley, one block south of the Berkeley BART station. LSI has drink machines but no real food, bring a sack lunch or visit one of the local eateries. Free street parking or paid parking garage nearby.

Cost: $37.00 GBACG Members, $47.00 Non-Members

Deadline for Sign-up: July 13, 2007 or until full. Space is limited.
This workshop is payable via PayPal. You may also pay by check.
Please see our website ( www.gbacg.org ) for sign-up information.
