This course is suitable for absolute beginners but returning stitchers are always welcome! We will focus on building confidence, teaching you useful, transferable skills all in a super friendly and sociable environment.
Over the course of the 4 weeks, you will be taken through the very basics of getting to know your equipment, setting up and threading your sewing machine, working on sampling, learn about fabric properties and grain lines, darts and pleats, how to insert a zip - and then the leap to making a ‘toile’ – this is a prototype, or fitting version of a pattern that is made up in an inexpensive garment so you can test your design.
