31 May 10 out of 10 for the 4-Day Stitching Course

During May half-term the FC Designer Workspace held their popular 4-day Stitching course which aims to give beginners, or those with a little experience, more confidence using the machines and to gain initial garment making skills.

Held from 28th – 31st May, the course was led by tutors Ana and Elise, who worked with each individual at their own pace and skill level. The number of learners on this course is kept to a minimum to ensure each individual receives one-to-one support as and when they need it. 

The learners went from practicing on the machines on day 1 to making garments by day 4 and the course has a track record of delivering key skills fast in a relaxed and informal environment.

Learner Hauwa commented: “I learnt a whole lot. How to thread a machine, overlocker, cut a pattern. I made a baby t-shirt, pockets and gained confidence. I would love to come back for the Level 1 course starting in September. I am someone that hated sewing but Ana and Elise have helped me find a new love for it. I am a fashion illustrator that has just started my own brand @Eve.Bello, I came on this 4-day course to upskill and gain knowledge.”

Irem said: “I learnt how to stitch properly and in a confident way. I learnt about overlocking, how to approach upcycling projects. I would definitely recommend it. Very informative, helpful instructors and such a friendly environment.”

While Kemi added: “The tutors were lovely and so friendly and very informative.”

The next 4-day Stitching course at the FC Designer Workspace will take place from Monday 29th July, tap here for more details.
