    What is this course about?

    During the course you will be shown how to sew five different projects which contain a range of sewing techniques including fitting a zip, sewing darts and creating buttonholes.

    This course is aimed at those who have sewn in the past and feel they need a refresher.  Plus, those who can complete basic projects and wish to extend their knowledge.

    Entry Requirements to do this course:

    A basic level of conversational and written English. Reasonable motor skills, as you will need to be able to manipulate fabric and tools. Plus, you will need a working sewing machine and basic tools and materials.

    How you will be assessed?

    Through questions and answers, the completion of weekly learner reflection forms and a sample of your work completed during the session.

    How much studying will I need to do outside of the lesson?

    You will need to spend an hour to prepare your fabric for the following week. 

    After this course you might like to… explore our Hand-made Fabric Flowers or Jewellery Making for Beginners courses.

    What learners need to bring/supply

    Students will need to provide all materials and tools to complete the project being created. A list of materials required will be provided with your booking confirmation. We also suggest items you would normally throw away so reduce costs and be sustainable.  

    Additional Information
