Lemon Pie Cape Coat - Live Virtual Workshop
I don't know about you, but a coat with some caped style takes my breath away!
Workshop Summary
I've been dreaming of this burgandy rain coat with a dark floral lining and caped sleeves for quite some time. ...and now, I am so excited to make this coat with you! Now you don't have to make a raincoat...you can make any ole' coat you want, but I'll take you through the steps of making the coat and share how I make mine into a raincoat.
This coat by Waffle Patterns features a stand-up collar, pockets and a lining and has princess seams which give it a nice a-line shape.
In this live, 5-part, virtual workshop, I'll take you through choosing your size, making fit adjustments before you begin, and sewing the coat.
The beauty of this workshop is that it will be intimate and live and you can jump in at anytime with questions or comments. Just like you were at an in-person workshop, but from your own comfy home. And there will be recordings!
The class will be held in 5 sessions for 1-2 hours each. For a total of 9 hours of class time. You'll also have access to my private community where you can post pictures and videos, leaves messages or comments and both get assistance and connect with other students. I am also happy to answer email questions directly!
I want you to have sweet, sweet success.

About the class
- Classes will be live and will be as close to an in-person workshop as possible.
- I will be teaching the classes from my home sewing studio and will provide a space to learn that is open, kind-hearted and full of more good information than you may want! ;-)
- Classes will be recorded and made available to watch within 24 hours.
- I will be available for questions via email or on our private community space. Please ask me questions (it makes me feel important!).
- Each construction class will begin with a few minutes for fit questions, so be sure to bring your questions and wear your garment!
- You can join the classes via computer, tablet or phone, but the larger the screen the more easily you'll see what's happening.
- and to that end, I'll be using two cameras to ensure that you can see what's happening!
- The registration cost includes 9 hours of class time, accesss to the recorded videos, the ability to reach out to me for one-on-one help and a private community.
- You will need to purchase the pattern from Waffle Patterns directly. Click on the link.
Course Pricing
Returns / Refunds
There are no refunds or returns on live virtual workshops. In order to have an intimate, personal sewing experience and have the kind of interaction I want us to have, the number of students that can enroll in the workshop is very limited. Once you register for the workshop your space is held for you whether you attend or not.
If you are unable to attend the live workshop, the recordings will be avilable to you as well as the community (for as long as it's live) and I always weclome email questions as you work on fit and construction.
