What does the workshop cover?
We are delighted that Nicole Akong who was one of the finalists in series six of the sewing bee has kindly allowed us to use her pattern for this great workshop. Morgan your tutor, worked closely with Nicole on this and other patterns in her collection.
This exciting workshop is to help sewists that are comfortable with using their over locker, but want to tackle making their first garment using it. We will be covering sizing and choosing the right size for you. How to sew jersey and stretch fabrics on your overlocker. Constructing all the main elements of a sweatshirt, including a neckband, sleeves and cuffs.
As part of the workshop, you will also receive an exclusive discount code to purchase the pattern, so you can print it at home and use it again and again to make the sweatshirt as many times as
you wish! Once you’ve made one, you will want one in every colour!
