Dress Making (Beginner)

Have you always wanted to sew and make your own clothes? Let Karina take the mystery out of sewing & dressmaking. Karina will tailor a 4 week beginners course that will increase your sewing skills and confidence.

There are fantastic beginner-friendly patterns out there and you will be making a dress or top of your choice in no time, and once you’ve caught the bug you will be able to make a whole new wardrobe (disclaimer, depending on how big your wardrobe or aspirations are, I am unable to put a time limit on this).

Class numbers are small so you will have plenty of time with Karina. You will develop the skills and confidence you need to move onto more complicated makes. Plus you’ll be able to wow your friends with your new Super Power.

For the first class you’ll need to bring:

• If using your own Sewing machine, it must be in working order* (some homework may be required, having access to a sewing machine at home will help you keep on track)
• We have Brother Sewing machines available on a first-come first-served basis. The cost to hire is $40 and is an option when booking your course. It is available for you to use when attending each class. You will receive a $50 credit towards a new sewing machine if you choose to buy a Brother Sewing Machine through me.
• A sewing kit consisting of:  two spools of good quality thread (white and black or blue), fabric scissors, sewing pins, a fabric marking pen (water-soluble or chalk pencil), measuring tape and a ‘quick unpick” (A sewing kit can be purchased for $65. Please order a sewing kit here if required)
