Scissors, thread and measuring tape laying on a table.

Do you struggle to find clothes with the perfect fit? Would you like to be able to alter clothes to fit better? Maybe it’s a zip that has broken? Whether it’s trousers that are too long, or you want to repurpose old clothes into stylish new garments, this sewing workshop is a great place to start and learn.

Running over 4 weeks we will look at:

  • Week 1 – 13 November: Shortening trousers, skirts and sleeves.
  • Week 2 – 20 November: Replacing zips.
  • Week 3 – 27 November: Adjusting tops and waistbands.
  • Week 4 – 4 December: Repurposing jeans.

Choose to book either the whole 4 week workshop starting on 13 November for £135

OR

Book the individual workshops you would like to attend for £50 per session.

Choose to bring your own piece of clothing or use one of the pieces available.

Sue has a selection of sewing machines you can use or you can bring your own machine with you.

All groups are kept small with a maximum of 4 people and take place within her cosy studio within the grounds of Hylands Estate.

Cakes and drinks are provided. Parking charges at Hylands Estate and a 20% discount at The Deli café is included in the cost of the workshop.
