In this 'choose your own adventure' style intermediate sewing course, we’ll sew a top based on a customisable base garment pattern specially designed to help you master a number of techniques.

This is a great follow on from our Learn to Sew: Casual Basics or Make a Skirt courses, or if you've been finding your own way at home and want to advance your skills.

You’ll learn how to sew:

Sleeves (Fitted or gathered)
Darts
Gathers & Pleats
Yoke
Facing
Collars / Necklines
Sleeve Plackets…

Things to remember

Materials & Equipment:

You will need 2.5m of a medium weight woven fabric to make the top, such as cotton or linen. We have a selection of fabrics and trims in the studio which you can purchase from us.

Feel free to get in touch before the class to discuss…

Do you have all the equipment that I need?

Yes, we have everything that you need but feel free to bring in your own machine and equipment.

How big are the class sizes?

We like to keep our classes small so that everyone has enough teacher time. We generally have a maximum of 8. If there are more people wanting to join the class then we will have 2 teachers to make sure everyone still has enough teacher time.

Is there parking?

All the roads around the library are free to park on.

What happens if I need to miss a week?

To get the most out of the class we recommend that you attend every week however we understand that things crop up. We offer 1 catch up session during our Sewcial class which runs on a Tuesday morning or a Thursday evening fortnightly.

Obby Guarantee

We ensure quality. If your class doesn't reach your expectations, we'll give your money back.
