Teen and tween sewers with basic skills will master the art of crafting a stylish bucket hat in this engaging 3-hour class. Learn to measure, cut, and construct both crown and brim using proper pattern sizing and grain techniques. Discover how to apply fusible interfacing, assemble components with precision stitching, and add professional finishing touches. Perfect for spring and summer projects, this hands-on session with instructor Pamela Lovering builds confidence and expands your sewing toolkit. Bring your sewing machine, fabric, and basic supplies—we'll guide you through every step to create a wearable masterpiece.
