Curious about what really went on under it all? Join us for an open, hands-on series of workshops looking to explore, test, and build historical underpinnings.
This session will focus on Regency short stays; we'll dig into references, draft patterns, and mock up in calico to see the structure. Think of it as part study group, part sewing circle, part practical experiment.
What We'll Do
- Explore references and construction methods for Regency short stays
- Draft and adapt a pattern for stays
- Cut, test, and experiment with fabric and structure
- Share research and knowledge in a collaborative setting
- Use our specialist sewing equipment with guidance on hand
- Enjoy tea, coffee, and a good blether while you sew
💡 This isn’t a formal class – it’s a collaborative workshop. Some sewing knowledge is recommended, but you don’t need to be an expert. Bring curiosity and a willingness to experiment.
