Dressmaking Workshops
Working with calico fabric you can learn the elements of garment making with the
right procedures step by step. Calico is easy to work with and you can see what
you are doing on its crisp surface. Making samplers will quickly give you the
confidence to sew all the elements of garment making, e.g. zips, pockets, shirt
collars, and facings, in the actual fabrics. With our expertise and guidance,
you can achieve beautiful results from your projects!
Browse through the workshops to discover what each one involves.
WORKSHOPS INCLUDE
All materials are provided for in the technical workshops: fabrics, threads,
zips, and haberdashery. The project-based workshops require you to bring your
own fabric, trimmings, and haberdashery. Pattern workshops will be where you can
learn how to make your own, or adjust a current pattern to your own design or
fit.
You will need to bring your sewing machine, its toolbox, instruction booklet,
and small dressmaking scissors. We do have a spare sewing machine to reserve if
you don’t have one, or if yours is too heavy.
Venue is in the InStitches Sewing Room that is part of the Juliette McElligott
Jewellery School.
Coffee and Tea are provided. Day workshops will have a lunch break that you can
bring something along for, and there are also Colyton Market Square shops and
various cafes.
