20 Aug Summer of Stitching for Intermediate Learners

Throughout the summer the FC Designer Workspace has hosted a series of 1-day courses aimed at intermediate sewers. After receiving several requests from learners wanting to further develop their stitching and making skills the FC Designer Workspace team put on a series of 1-day classes focusing on key garments: a dress, a bodice with sleeves, a skirt and a pair of trousers.

Open to local residents and those further afield, the aim of the 1-day classes was to support and empower learners to develop their sewing skills.

The feedback from attendees was excellent and included:

“I learnt more about darts, patterns and invisible zips. I bloody love it here!”

“Both Ana and Elisa are very friendly and helpful. Thanks.”

“I learnt about interlocking on a Juki, techniques on sewing darts, tips on threading. I liked that it was easy to follow step by step.”

“Everyone is helpful and lovely.”

“I loved every second! Clear instructions and lots of 1 – 1 help, as well as explaining why / how things go wrong.”

“Learnt about trouser making and lots of extra info. I love these courses! More please, weekends??”

“Great atmosphere! Easy and felt comfortable. It’s summer sewing!”

“It was very exciting to see all the new technology and methods and try them myself.”

“Ana, Elisa and Lan were excellent teachers. Thank-you for your patience and making this an enjoyable course.”

“ Ana and Elisa are always amazing, this is my 4th course and I want to come back for more. Such an amazing, encouraging and supportive atmosphere where everyone is keen to help you.”
