Making your own clothes is about learning to be yourself. Choose your own fabric; fit it to your own unique body; express your own unique style. If you're tired of wearing low quality, ill-fitting and generic hi-street clothing, then this course is your opportunity to break from the herd.
Get started with a practice session creating samples to help you sew in a straight line, understand the importance of seam allowances, learn the many functions on your machine and tension for the fabric type.
Work on your own choice of project or on Carole's choice of project. Please book a seat to avoid disappointment.
This course is ideal for developing your sewing skills. It will cover all aspects of garment making from selecting a pattern to the finishing touches. These skills may help you towards a career in the field of fashion.
Sewing classes are offered by Irina's Sewing Room for all skill level.
