What students will learn and make

Experienced Students
This term, students will create their own ruffle-sleeved top - a beautiful, wearable garment that looks as good as something from a shop!

They'll learn new techniques including gathering, sleeves, facings, hems and closures. They'll also make a padded Fancy Drawstring Bag with handy internal pockets - perfect for carrying treasures, school supplies or taking on adventures.

Both projects build on previous skills while introducing new challenges and helping students grow their confidence as sewists.

Beginner Students
Students new to sewing will learn how to safely use a sewing machine, sew straight seams, follow simple patterns and build confidence through fun projects.

They'll create a range of awesome pieces along the way, including scrunchies, tote bags, soft toys, skirts and more.

What to bring
All materials and sewing machines are provided.

Students need:
- Covered shoes
- Long hair tied back for sewing machine safety

What parents say
"My daughter LOVED the class so much that she wanted to go straight back again. She was so proud of her dress, she wants to make more. The design was really lovely too. She will be back!"
