Ready to take your sewing skills to the next level?

In this open and creative sewing course, you get to choose what you want to make! Whether you have an idea for an outfit, want to customise your clothes, or simply want to learn new sewing techniques, you'll work on your own project with guidance from an experienced sewing and pattern-making tutor.

You can follow a commercial sewing pattern, adapt an existing pattern, or even learn how to turn your own ideas and sketches into a pattern. Each student will work at their own level, making this course perfect for young people who want to become more confident and independent with sewing.
