You will work on a design with alternating panels incorporating a variety of lampshade techniques such as gathers, pleats, and pattern matched tailoring. You will know how to add a variety of drop down trimmings, gimp and bias. You will also gain the confidence to work on a variety of future lampshade projects using traditional methods and hand sewing techniques. Who will be teaching me?
