Saturday Dressmaking Sessions – Collars

If you would like to jazz up your basic dressmaking with some more skills, then these Saturday sessions may well be the answer. We’re assuming that you can already follow a pattern, and sew a basic garment. We are running 4 sessions that will help you make a range of clothing, such as shirts, jackets and dresses with collars and sleeves. If you’d like to make a complete garment please book on the complete course which is a separate listing on the website and contact us to discuss your pattern, the ideal pattern for the course would really be a jacket tho….

In this session we will be looking at collars, specifically jacket or shirt collars with lapels. If we’ve time we can look at a mandarin or stand up collar as well, but we’ll see….

If you’ve a sewing machine of your own, please do bring it along. You will need to be au fait with using your machine and be able to read and follow a pattern, if you are working from a pattern. If you’d just like to learn about sewing a collar and you can use a sewing machine, then this course is for you too.

As usual class sizes are small and you’ll get plenty of one to one time, there’s comprehensive handouts and a sewing resource sheet.

The course runs 1-4pm and costs £25 including materials and refreshments.
