New Seams | Beginners Day

£95.00

Never picked up a needle? Or you have a machine, but either don't know or can't remember how to use it? Come and figure it all out with Lizzie in her ‘New Seams’ day-long session.

We'll work through the ‘Betty’s Bag’ project bag pattern designed for complete beginners. This introduces you to some of the key terms you’ll find in sewing patterns and will set you up to have a go at beginner-level garment patterns.

From a straight line to french seams and bagging out, in Lizzie’s capable hands you will leave having sewn a beautiful lined bag with a secret phone pouch attached. Yes, you really will!

The workshops take place at two venues:

• Lizzie’s studio in central Bristol, in a working textiles and tailoring space, or
• Clevedon Craft Centre

Small groups, maximum 6 people (studio) and 8 people (Craft Centre).

Time: 10am – 5pm

Please bring your own machine, or there are 2 available to book free of charge
Bag pattern included but you must bring your own fabric
