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. ​
