18th Century Basic Hand Sewing Workshop Registration



This workshop will be on Saturday November 10, 2018 
from 10 am to 2 pm 


Laurel Pool Room 
9th and Main Streets
Laurel, MD 20707

This is a basic hand sewing workshop in which participants will learn the basic hand stitches used in 18th century garment construction. This is scheduled prior to the February winter workshop series in order to help those who may need some practice with basic stitches prior to that workshop. Participants not attending in February are welcome as well. Participants will create samples of the following: running stitch, back stitch, prick stitch, whip stitch, applique stitch, Point a Rabattre sous la Main stitch, English stitch --to be used for reference when making 18th century garments.

Participants will be supplied with a materials pack and will need to bring basic sewing supplies:  scissors, needles, thread (any colors), pins

Beverages and paper goods will be supplied and we will have a sign up sheet for food to be shared which will be posted on the event page.

The fee for this workshop is $25 and participation is limited to 25 students.

  1. Can you tell me what your February workshop is going to be on? I'm thinking it will probably be something I'm interested in.

      Our emphasis will be on understanding the styles of the lower, middlin' and upper class women during the Revolutionary War years. Our hands on workshops will include gown trimming, making a work bag and trimming a flat hat.
