Dressmaking
Have you ever missed out on a beautiful dress at a bargain price because they didn’t have your size? No problem! With this 10 week course you will acquire all of the skills you need to do your own fashion DIY! From understanding the materials to using the equipment, from practical stitches to decorative stitches, there is something for everyone. You will also learn how to take correct body measurements, so that you’re never left short.
The informal sessions allow learners to be inspired by other class members and weekly demonstrations on a variety of techniques/projects by the tutor.
During the 10 week course learners will perhaps only complete one of the garments, depending on how much independent study takes place outside class.
Through 1:1 personalised demonstrations and feedback, along with group work and presentations, you will gain all of the knowledge and skills you need for dressmaking.
