London: Summer: Ready to Wear (7-12 years)

Let’s start sewing sustainable clothes on a machine and drawing some great ideas from your imagination! Make friends whilst learning something new in a cosy and friendly environment. Great for beginners and experienced sewers.

Example Brief:
This term you will create new sustainable pieces to add to your Summer wardrobe. Using a selection of dead-stock designer fabrics, you will create a co-ord set which both on-trend and sustainable. You will need to use your imagination and creativity to design and develop a look from a drawing to a pattern to sewing your final garments. This look will be the perfect addition to your Summer wardrobe.

What we provide:
Expert tuition, from practicing pattern cutters, fashion designers etc. who have degrees in relevant art and fashion courses.
The use of new and fully serviced Janome sewing machines, scissors, tools and threads etc.

Students can use free donated fabrics as part of our Circularity Bank or bring in their own.

At the end of term they will come home with:
Design sheets, sustainable fabric awareness and technical sewing samples.
A completed garment and/or accessory designed and made by them.
Certificate of completion (over 80% attendance).
