This is a follow-up for our Sewing Workshop Series: Basics 1.0!! It doesn’t mean that you cannot join this course if you didn’t follow the first one. If you have some sewing experience and want to deepen your knowledge you can also start with the second course without doing the first. (the first is meant for (complete) beginners and this one for advanced beginners).
With this course you can learn the most important sewing techniques in a more structured way. In this course you will learn these techniques by making samples. Learn to create the perfect lapelle, advanced pocket, bias binding and placket etc. This is an 8‑week course on Tuesday or Wednesday evening.
