This one-day workshop is the perfect starting point for anyone new to dressmaking and garment sewing. Whether you've never touched a sewing machine or want to build proper foundations before progressing, this workshop will introduce you to the core skills needed to start sewing with confidence. If you're not yet familiar with your machine itself, we recommend booking our Get to Know Your Sewing Machine Workshop beforehand, so you can come to this session ready to focus on garment sewing skills. By the end of the day, you'll have a solid grounding in essential techniques, and you'll be ready to progress onto our Essential Intermediate Sewing Skills Workshop, held the following weekend.
  • How to wind a bobbin and thread up your machine
  • When to use various seams and seam finishes
  • Different hem finishes and where they are used
  • How to cut cloth correctly
  • An introduction to reading and understanding a sewing pattern
  • Your own sewing machine, foot pedal and manual
  • Your machine must be in full working order — if you'd like us to service it beforehand, we can arrange this in advance
  • Your sewing kit, if you have one
  • A full workshop companion list is included in your booking confirmation email — please check this closer to the day
  • Notebook and pen
  • Lunch / refreshments
