What's on
Your tutor, Melinda is looking forward to meeting you and says: “Are you:
• a self-taught dressmaker?
• just starting out on your dressmaking journey?
• a dressmaker with some experience looking to learn some techniques to improve the finish of your garments?
If so, this half day workshop could be just what you are looking for! Be prepared to pick up lots of tips and snippets of dressmaking information too throughout the morning!
During the workshop you will learn:
• a variety of ways to finish a neckline
• associated techniques including under stitching
You will leave this workshop with a series of sample pieces you have made demonstrating each technique covered, for you to keep to refer to in your sewing journey.
You can either bring your machine or use one of our machines (first come first served)”
Anticipation to enjoy the whole experience!
