About this event

Join us for an exciting three-day workshop dedicated to the art of trouser making, where you will have the opportunity to create your own pair of trousers using a pre-made pattern.

On the first day, immerse yourself in the world of sewing as you familiarise yourself with a variety of sewing machines, including both flatbed and overlock machines. This hands-on session will focus on essential techniques, including sewing straight lines and mastering the threading and operation of each machine. You'll gain confidence in your skills as you experiment with different stitches and settings.

On the second day, we will concentrate on the practical assembly of your trousers. We will guide you through essential techniques, including how to sew a fly front. You will also learn how to finish the waistband and hem, ensuring that your trousers have a refined and polished look.
