Summer Wardrobe: Express Workshop (7-11 yrs)

Create something you'll actually wear in this fun two-day sewing workshop! Perfect as a taster for beginners or for students looking to build on their existing sewing skills, this short course is all about making a simple summer garment or accessory.

Students can choose from a selection of beginner-friendly projects, including and not limited to: elasticated shorts, a skirt, cami top, mini bag. They'll learn or develop essential sewing skills such as measuring, cutting fabric, using a sewing machine, constructing seams and achieving a neat finish, while working at their own pace with guidance from our tutors.

Please note that we have a limited supply of jersey and stretch fabrics. We encourage students to choose from our wide range of donated woven fabrics, including cotton and linen. These natural fibres are easier to sew, built to last and are a more sustainable choice.
