If there is a very strong interest in the course, we will add a second session.

The course/kit cost is $30.00

I have a limited supply of FHW Shirting these kits are $45

This cost includes the following items:
1. Shirt Kit (See web site for details)
2. Instruction Manual
3. Stitch Samples
4. 2.0 hours of Instruction and Lecture on Period Correct Materials, Pattern and Construction
(or longer due to the fact that I have the Gift of Gab)
5. Original Shirt, Undershirt, & Night Shirt samples to examine

Basic sewing skills will be needed to complete the project on your own time, and all students will need to supply their own needles, thread, and hardware.

The class will be held on the second floor of the Zoar School.

THMOAS PUBLICATIONS has been gracious enough to extend me an offer on a quantity discoutn for William Brown III's "THOUGHTS ON MEN"S SHIRTS" at $15 per copy.

We are recommending that participants in the seminar acquire this book or bring along their copy, as it does make a very good "PRIMER" when discussing period shirts.

If you are interested in a book drop us a line to secure a copy.

If you have this weekend free, it's worth your time to learning a new skill. Classes like this aren't offered at your local community college and I'd consider this 'continuing education' for the authentically minded hobbyist.
