On this course you will learn key skills & processes in garment construction: cutting out, piecing together, fitting, stitching, pressing, the correct and safe use of tools and equipment, understanding and adapting commercially bought patterns and choosing styles and suitable fabrics. You will sample a variety of techniques throughout the course, in addition to working on a garment of your choice- in a 5/6 week class, beginners should be able to make a simple dress, top, skirt or trousers. Returning learners & improvers should be able to move on to a slightly more complex garment and/or experiment with using different construction methods to develop their skills.
