Profesional Adult Sewing Classes By Silvana

Learner hours: 25

These courses consist of two 12 week complementary courses, running one after the other (you can start the courses in any order). If you take both of them you will learn all the sewing skills needed to design, create and make your own clothes.

With each course focusing on either lower or upper body sewing techniques, you can choose whichever best fits your aspirations for creating new garments and styles.

This course will build on the basic machine sewing skills learnt in part one. Each week, you will add to a file of samples to create a portfolio of visual work which will showcase your skills.

Booking deadlines

Bookings for all Short Courses will be reviewed two weeks before the start date of each course. This will allow the Short Course team to determine whether a course has met the minimum number of students needed for the class to run. If a class has failed to recruit, the class will be re-scheduled and you will be informed. Where relevant you will be offered an alternative class. If the course has met minimum numbers, bookings will stay open to the course start date or until it has met maximum numbers.

We encourage you to book early before the deadline to avoid disappointment. As this is a small class and places are limited!
