Open Studio - support sessions
Open Studio Sessions
Get support with your sewing and pattern cutting projects during these one- off workshops.
You can work on garments already started, get help with a specific sewing or pattern cutting technique or bring along a design idea or ready made pattern to start your project from the beginning.
During these one off sessions within a small group setting, you will be given lots of one to one support and guidance on progressing at a pace and level suitable for for you, helping you to produce well-finished garments you can be proud of.
The workshops are suitable for all levels including beginners but you do need to have some experience of using a domestic sewing machine (such as the Absolute Beginners Sewing Introduction at the top of this page).
When purchasing patterns please ensure you select a pattern suitable for your ability - you're welcome to make contact before the workshop if you need advice on choosing a pattern for your level. These classes are also for students who have produced their own patterns, either during the pattern cutting courses or independently.
