We will teach you everything you need to know to make your own knickers including:

Then we will teach you some of the basic sewing techniques you will need to use when making your own clothing including:

  • sewing accurate seam allowances
  • how to finish your seams

All materials will be provided and you will be able to take your pattern away with you to make more at home.
