Make it Your Own Day
Make it your own day is a popular workshop that provides an opportunity to work on a project of your choice and is run from our brand new custom built sewing studio in Farington. Work on new techniques; complete a project currently under assembly or address individual areas for improvement.

In this one day pattern fitting workshop you will learn the secret of how to alter patterns to fit you perfectly. No more baggy necklines, gaping armholes or badly fitting bust darts. Suitable for all skill levels.
Basic Overlocking Techniques
Frustrated with your overlocker? Terrified of the threads breaking as that means having to re-thread, something that throws you into a hot sweat? Then this course is for you!
Be Creative with Your Overlocker
This workshop will focus on garment construction using woven fabrics but will also allow you to broaden your overlocking skills as you discover the decorative elements of overlocking using decorative threads and yarns.
Garment Construction with Your Overlocker
This workshop is an ideal compliment to Basic Overlocking focusing on garment construction using stretch fabrics. You would need to complete the basic overlocking course prior to this in order to get the most out of the day.
