Sewing classes attracts all kinds of folks for all kinds of reasons By DAWN HOLCOMB Times Staff Writer Does the word tisewing seem tor seaml to tie a bind in your benders? My mother used to make my clothes; my sister sewed and, of course, when I came along, I was supposed to sew. Right? Well, instead of using the sewing bench like my older sister, I'd use the piano bench. To each his, or her, own. But because of the price of clothes and because of the fashion trends, more and more women and men are learning to make their own ward- robes - and they love it. At the Lanier Area Technical School here in Gainesville, there's a class that teaches not only the basics in sewing, but teaches tailoring, tex- tiles, principles of creative clothing, custom sewing, sewing on stretch fabrics, basic alterations, merchan- dising and other aspects of the fash- ion world today. There could be possible income in knowing how to alter a suit, how to tailor a jacket, how to make shorts for your next-door neighbors' kids. . Earl Tabor, formerly employed by the U.S. Army, udidn,t know how to thread a needle, said Mrs. Frances Syfan, instructor at Lanier Tech. itBut he was interested enough in clothes that he wanted to learn how to make them, she said. ltHeid never replaced a zipper - now he's putting them in jeans. And because of this class, he was even put in charge of a display win- dow at the school, where he created most of the garments in the display. People just .dont seem to know that we're here, said Mrs. Syfan. Another example is Carolyn Pratt who has her doctorate in psychology and is now retired. Why did she take the class? ttI just wanted to learn how to sew, she said. Not only is the class offered for reg- ular and part-time students, itls of- fered for those who want to take the course for personal enrichment, peo- ple like Ms. Pratt. tiWe gear the class to work oneach individual's basis, said Mrs. Syfan. 80 HThe classes are based very much on the same as the tailoring courses of- fered at the University of Georgia, she said. uI think the word isewing' often turns girls off, Mrs. Syfan contin- ued. But for someone with just a little bit of flair for clothes, they find themselves getting real excited over it. But because so many of the wives these days are in the work force, the last thing they want to do is come home and make clothes for everyone. Not so for Cherry Dunn, one of the students in the sewing class now. A divorcee and the mother of three The Timeleawn Holcomb Teresa Reynolds says she loves making lingerie more than anything. little ones, Ms. Dunn recently com pleted her first quarter at the school and is already doing alterations for people on the side. Shels able to pick up some extra money that way, said Mrs. Syfan. tiltls pretty unusual for a student to do this professional work this soon in the program. One of the problems found in a lot of homemade wear, though, said Mrs. Syfan, is that the garments need to look professional instead of home- made. To master this, the course itCoutour dressmaking is offered. See SEWING on page 7D Tho TImes,Galnesvllle,Georgia,$unday,Ju'neio 1984 7' E 0 Sewing Continued from page ID itThere's always room for polishing even for people that sew well, she said. Teresa Reynolds, another student now in the sewing program, said her favorite part was making her own lin- gerie. Everybody ought to try sew- ing at least once, she said. Another student who has completed the sewing course is Patricia Dock- ery, who has just opened her own shop in Cleveland. She makes bride's dresses, bridesmaids, dresses, dresses for the mother of the bride and the mother of the groom, and oth- er special costumes and garments for different organizations. Linda Conowal is another former student who now manages the Fabric Outlet in Cumming where she is in charge of making the garment dis- plays. ' . Nancy Penick will graduate at th end of this quarter from Lanier Tech but will go on to Gainesville Junior College to complete her associate de- gree in fashion merchandising. ' Ms. Penick is now doing displays at Cato's at Lakeshore Mall and, when needed, she works extra hours at Dot's Fabrics on Atlanta Highway. She made a three-piece suit for her brother who recently modeled it in a fashion show held at the school. Mrs. Syfan said Lanier Tech is working out a career ladder program with the University of Georgia. The program would mean one year at Lanier Tech in the tailoring and fash- ion department, one year at Gaines- ville J unior College in fashion merchandising and core curriculum, and then transferring to the Universi- ty of Georgia for a degree in clothing or fashion merchandising. Training in this field gives students opportunities such as doing custom dressmaking town businessl; altera- tions in their own business, in dry- cleaning establishments, or in clothing stores; working as a clerk in a clothing store; working in fabric stores; and making sample garments in a design department for a garment manufacturing company. For more information on the cost of the classes and for registration, call 532-7243 or 536-8884 and ask for Mrs. Syfan or Frances Hulsey. 81 AUTOGRAPHS 83 84 85 86 88
