The courses run for 10 weeks (with a one week break after week 5 for the school half term holiday)

​

The Dressmaking courses are suitable for sewing abilities from beginners to improvers and are designed

to be creative and fun, in a relaxed and very friendly atmosphere.  Each student learns and works at their own

pace by making a dressmaking project they have chosen to suit their ability i.e. a tote bag, an apron, a top,

blouse, shirt, dress, trousers, jacket or coat. ​

You will learn:

  • use of your sewing machine, thread choices, needle sizing and different feet.  

  • use of an overlocker machine

  • how to choose a suitable commercial dressmaking pattern and correct sizing.

  • how to choose suitable fabrics for your project, and widen your knowledge of fibres and fabrics.

  • taking measurements, altering the pattern, pinning, cutting out and fabric marking methods.

  • use of interfacings and linings where appropriate  

  • a wide variety of sewing methods, techniques and fitting help to assemble and complete your garment. ​
