Couture Maternity Robe Masterclass
A masterclass demonstrating how to create a beautiful couture maternity robe with ruffles on billowy sleeves and around neckline/front. Step-by-step construction tutorial by Anna.
This snapshot was taken midway before finishing the gown, so this isn't quite the final product just yet, but it's a variation of what can be done. Take a look and see if that's something you'd like to learn how to make.
The pattern included in the masterclass is suitable not only for maternity sizes and styles, but regular adult/teen sizes as well.

A video masterclass is an entirely different experience from just a pdf sewing tutorial or a store-bought pattern. For each and every step of the process there is a video demonstrating everything you need to know in every possible detail. Video courses are ideal for visual learners, it is very much like having your own personal sewing teacher who gently guides you through all the steps of the construction process. This is an investment well-spent because you are guaranteed to achieve a result in the end.
Below is a quick example of what a video lesson looks like (you will be watching it in a larger scale of course!).
