Intermediate Sewing Workshop
This class is aimed at folks who have basic machine sewing skills or have attended a beginner's sewing class and would like to progress their skills.
You will be able to thread up a sewing machine and have made a simple project such as a cushion cover.
​
You will make a gorgeous make-up or wash bag that is lined and has a zip to close.
​
During the beginner's class, you will have mastered how to set up a sewing machine – winding the bobbin, threading machine and controlling the speed and direction of sewing – then making a cushion cover!
​
Taking this to the next level you can easily progress onto fitting a zip, lining and precision in cutting and sewing a smaller item - i.e. the washbag.
​
After this class, you'll be ready to join our dressmaking class and start making your own clothes!
​
This class is run over 2 evenings - 6.15pm - 8.45pm (2 consecutive weeks).
