About this Event

Always wanted to make your own clothes but not sure where to start? Or have you already made some garments but need some help with technique? This 4-week course is for you!


Over four two and a half hour sessions, our tutors Sarah and Win will be on hand with expert guidance as you create a garment from a pattern of your choice. No need to fear tricky construction such as inserting invisible zips or fathoming sleeve plackets!


Weds - 4th March - 6:30pm-9pm

Weds - 11th March - 6:30pm-9pm

Weds - 18th March - 6:30pm-9pm

Weds - 25th March - 6:30pm-9pm


Bring along your pattern and fabric and we’ll help you take it from there.


This is a mixed-ability class, so you’ll learn at your own pace. What you can complete in four weeks will depend on the complexity of your garment and how fast you work! As an example, you can expect to complete a straightforward shift dress to a good standard in this time. Fast stitchers are welcome to work on more than one project during the course.
