This two day workshop suitable for those who have a little bit of dressmaking under their belts and which to build their skills including collar construction, button placement, buttonholes and gathering. We will be making the Lyra Dress from Tilly and the Buttons. This is dress is a dream and can work in every season. By signing up you will get a copy of the pattern (sent to your home when you sign up) and two days of workshop time with hands on tuition and instruction from Hannah.


You will need to buy your own fabric. 


The reason for sending out the pattern ahead of the workshop is that there is a lot of sewing in the Lyra dress particularly if you go for the longer length dress and sleeves - if you wish you can get ahead by cutting out your pattern ahead of the workshop or making a toile to check fit on the bodice. Any questions on sizing or fabric choices just get in touch. 


This is an intermediate sewing workshop so we suggest that you are comfortable using a sewing machine and have made a garment or two before. 


Whats included - your pattern to keep which retails at £15.50, full tuition, tea/coffee and homemade cake. 


What to bring - fabric and notions and your copy of the pattern, lunch and your sewing machine (unless you plan to borrow one). 



A two day sewing workshop for intermediate dressmakers to create a tiered shirt dress which has a couple of different style options.  Full help is on hand to understand the pattern, cut out and assemble your dress.  Bring your own machine or borrow one from Stitching Kitchen.

COURSE DEVELOPER Nicky Simpson BA(Hons) Textiles Design: Specialising in print.

This course has been developed by NICKY SIMPSON who has developed many face-to-face and online courses, as well as delivering workshops in schools, at Festival Of Quilts, Knitting & Stitching Show, Stitch Festival and for the National Trust.
Nicky’s own work is creating arts and craft mostly with a heat press, featuring both machine and hand embroidery. Much of her work incorporates the flora found naturally in our beautiful English countryside. 





Feedback for other online courses developed by Nicky: 'I have completed this course this weekend and really enjoyed myself. I brushed up on some techniques I already knew, and can now see some new ideas for them. I really enjoyed the new techniques that I had shied away from before, as I thought they would be too tricky! The tutorial videos are very clear with great demos. Can't wait to experiment more.'

I really enjoyed the new techniques that I had shied away from before, as I thought they would be too tricky! The tutorial videos are very clear with great demos. Can't wait to experiment more."
"Wow, what a real treat your course is. AMAZING work.Would be super for any teacher, experienced or NQT. And a great place to share ideas and create a bank of ideas. You are offering so many resources for the money people will be paying. An absolute bargain at that price. I have thoroughly enjoyed working through the course."
"Just a quick email. Started the course this morning. Doing honey comb unit this afternoon. So far extremely informative. Easy step by step instructions with clear delivery."
"Hi, just completed the Online Constructed Skills course and really enjoyed making the samples. Have brushed up on a few skills – (the tucks) and have learnt new ones with the smocking, I have always wanted to try it but thought it might be too complicated. Just love the lattice – now I have that under my belt, I will be researching a few more techniques."
"I've just completed an online Constructed Textiles course with the Textiles Skills Academy and I'd like to recommend it to anyone that teaches Art Textiles. I've wanted to attend one of their courses for a while now and with lock down I have managed to succeed. Its a great course! Full of help sheets, video tutorials and samples to make BUT best of all is that as its taught by teachers so it links perfectly to GCSE and A level AOs. I can't wait to get back into the classroom to share my new skills."
"Thanks so much for today’s Zoom session, it was great to end the course with some live action 😁. I didn’t join in the conversations as I’m an art technician rather than a teacher. We don’t teach textiles at my school so when students want to use textiles they come to me. I’m really loving the techniques. I’ll sign up for the next one after half term." Sarah

What Teachers are saying about the Training Rooms?
"I have completed this course this weekend and really enjoyed myself. I brushed up on some techniques I already knew, and can now see some new ideas for them. I really enjoyed the new techniques that I had shied away from before, as I thought they would be too tricky! The tutorial videos are very clear with great demos. Can't wait to experiment more."
"Wow, what a real treat your course is. AMAZING work.Would be super for any teacher, experienced or NQT. And a great place to share ideas and create a bank of ideas. You are offering so many resources for the money people will be paying. An absolute bargain at that price. I have thoroughly enjoyed working through the course."
"Just a quick email. Started the course this morning. Doing honey comb unit this afternoon. So far extremely informative. Easy step by step instructions with clear delivery."
"Hi, just completed the Online Constructed Skills course and really enjoyed making the samples. Have brushed up on a few skills – (the tucks) and have learnt new ones with the smocking, I have always wanted to try it but thought it might be too complicated. Just love the lattice – now I have that under my belt, I will be researching a few more techniques."
"I've just completed an online Constructed Textiles course with the Textiles Skills Academy and I'd like to recommend it to anyone that teaches Art Textiles. I've wanted to attend one of their courses for a while now and with lock down I have managed to succeed. Its a great course! Full of help sheets, video tutorials and samples to make BUT best of all is that as its taught by teachers so it links perfectly to GCSE and A level AOs. I can't wait to get back into the classroom to share my new skills."
"Thanks so much for today’s Zoom session, it was great to end the course with some live action 😁. I didn’t join in the conversations as I’m an art technician rather than a teacher. We don’t teach textiles at my school so when students want to use textiles they come to me. I’m really loving the techniques. I’ll sign up for the next one after half term." Sarah
