Mary Ann Kronk, seamstress extraordinaire, has a passion for Revolutionary War apparel and often makes and sells reproduction apparel for local Hudson Valley re-enactors and museum docent. Now, she is offering a rare opportunity for others to learn how to stitch these period costumes during two six-week courses she will lead at the Needle Arts Guild in Beacon.

This one-time course will give you the opportunity to make your own period dress and to learn the basics of sewing in drape-to-fit technique. The course is designed for beginners and will use a Period Impressions Pattern.
The start time in February has not yet been announced but the classes are scheduled for Tuesday or Wednesday from 9 to 11a or 12 to 2 pm at the Guild at 48 Fulton Street.

To Register Call : 845 549-3323 or email: [email protected] or visit http://nacientneedle.wordpress.com_Registration Fees: $175.
