Join me for a live online masterclass in sewing a pair of drawstring pyjama bottoms - perfect for beginners.
I'll teach you how to draft the pattern yourself - made to measure. It sounds tricky but it's really not: This workshop is perfect for anyone who would like to make their own clothes but hasn't tried before. The PJ bottoms are quick to make - and you could even add pockets!
(Likewise, if you're a dab-hand at sewing, you will enjoy this speedy make).
I'll talk you through the process of measuring and making your pattern, then cutting your fabric. You'll have the opportunity to ask any questions as we go through, as this is a live event. You can choose the length - you may prefer to make PJ shorts, or long trousers.
Then I'll talk through the sewing and finishing process, sharing plenty of hints and tips to make your life easier.
You will join the video workshop live, where you'll be able to ask questions. You will also be sent a video of the session, so you can watch it back and play/pause at your leisure.
You will also be sent a full instruction handbook.
You will need 1 - 2m fabric depending on your size and preferred length. If in doubt, please ask me. Or wait to purchase your fabric until after the session if you're unsure.
