Ready to take your dressmaking skills to the next level?

Give your handmade garments beautiful shape, texture and movement with this fun and technique-filled sewing masterclass. In this hands-on session, you’ll explore some of the most popular fabric-shaping skills used in modern dressmaking - perfect for adding soft volume, pretty details and professional finishes to your me-made projects.

Across the three hours, you’ll work through shirring, gathering, ruffles and pleats, creating a set of sample swatches to take home. You’ll gain a clear understanding of how each technique works, how to set up your machine for best results, and how to apply these skills confidently to garments.
