Two New England companies have joined to offer a hands-on, two-day drapery clinic teaching the basics of professional window treatment fabrication. The clinic is taught by Pamela Damour, a seminar leader to the trade and a contributing writer to Draperies & Window Coverings magazine, and sponsored by Stitches Unlimited, Northampton, MA, and Anns' Fabrics Sewing Machines, Canton, MA,
Attendees will learn how to choose the right fabrics, calculate yardage, match pattern repeats, draft patterns, measure, install and more. The clinic will walk students through the entire process from conception to design, fabrication and installation and is designed for anyone interested in starting a home decorating business or someone wanting more professional results in his or her business.
