Historical interpreters Sara Walsh and Lisa Neel discuss Thursday how they reproduce antique clothing items using historical patterns and construction methods.
Buttonwoods Museum says Walsh and Neel will reveal how they source appropriate fabrics, determine top and sleeve lengths and how they come up with a stitching plan. The two designers will also share the practices they learned from fellow sewists and designers.
The program takes place Thursday, June 25, 6 p.m., at Buttonwoods Museum, 240 Water St., Haverhill.
Admission is free, but Buttonwoods Museum suggests a $20 donation to help pay for the “Stitching History Together” exhibit and dressmaking demonstration. There is more information on the Buttonwoods Museum Facebook page where individuals will be directed to register at Zeffy.com.
