Remode classes are excellent. I have been making a pair of trousers as part of the dressmaking class and despite a tricky pattern with minimal instructions and not quite enough fabric (dang !) I have had amazing,positive instruction and encouragement to complete the task.

This was a really enjoyable course and a perspective that as sewists we don't often take... It's easy to focus on the skills acquisition part of sewing, rather than sewing a coherent and flattering wardrobe. Elena is so knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic this was a really good course. My one suggestion is to swap the fashion drawing element for a session to discuss sewing plans in light if the courses teachings. For example, is this pattern right for me? What adaptations would suit me best? What fabric choices? How could it be styled etc. We had a version of this discussion on the course and all agreed it was super useful so would be good to consider adding that to the syllabus.

Excellent course that gives a thorough introduction to various aspects of style - I came away with lots of ideas and it really inspired me to think consciously about what I will sew next. The tutor is very knowledgable, enthusiastic and helpful. Highly recommend.
