MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Edgar Perdomo
Made is the only school or should I say institute that the only goal is to prepare their students for the fashion industry teaching them how to overcome the barriers of the industry. Made is the place that when you come in feeling the positive energy in the building with dedicated instructors that teach with love and respect the classes that are part of their fashion program.
I teach the Tailoring Masterclass that shares techniques that have unfortunately been lost over time.

FAQs
Who is this course for?
Anyone looking to learn a new skill! Our courses are designed for beginners as well as experienced designers. You should already have basic sewing skills or take our Sewing 1 course!
What supplies do I have to buy?
You will need a machine at home for homework. We recommend the Singer Heavy Duty 4411.
I haven’t taken class with you, but am I an experienced sewer. Can I start with an advanced class?
If you are familiar with threading and winding a bobbin on an industrial machine, understand grain line and seam allowance, and can sew plain seams, you are eligible for this course. If it has been a while since you've sewn on an industrial machine, we recommend becoming a Level 2 Member. You can work on your personal projects and work in the studio throughout the week to refamiliarize yourself with the machine.
Will there be homework?
Yes, you will have assignments to work on at home throughout the courses. You can expect to have 1-2 hours of homework each week.
Do I have access to the studio outside of class time?
No, only Studio Members and Designer Development Program students have open studio access. Click to become a Member
