Learn to Read Sewing Patterns Workshop

Saturday 29 June 10.30am - 12.30pm

Firs Farm Community Hub, Firs Lane N21 2PJ

Join Stitch for a masterclass in learning your way around a commercial dress pattern and demystify those first steps in dressmaking.

This class will include an explanation of the language and the symbols used to transfer the important elements around the construction of a 3-D garment.

Pat will explain:-

- Notches (balance marks)

- Positioning of darts

- Embellishments- pockets and trim

There will be an explanation of "tailors tacking" and how you transfer marks onto your fabric. Pat will also explain step by step the mysterious but essential pattern primer.

You will construct part of a garment eg a sleeve, using a pattern in the workshops. All materials and sewing machines are provided.

Duration: 1.5 hours

Cost: £45

LOCATION: Firs Farm Community Hub, Firs Farm Playing Fields, Firs Lane, London N21 2PJ
