Dressmaking and Sewing Class - One to One Reviews

This is a fun activity in Manchester

Would you like to learn to make clothes from scratch? How about altering, customising, or upcycling existing garments? Or maybe you are just after some single lessons on pattern cutting, sewing techniques, or fabric cutting, for instance?

Whether you are after lifelong skills like making or mending your own clothes, or pursuing a professional career; whether you have a background in fashion or you are a complete beginner, my lessons cater for everyone. With decades of experience as a freelance fashion designer and garment technologist, I can help you develop your designs while you learn, and they will be tailored to your needs.

The sessions include the use of machines and tools, and fabrics for testing, although not final fabrics (these would have to be provided by yourself depending on the project that you are making).

You will be learning from a local professional fashion designer with more than 25 years' experience, in a city-centre studio near Manchester's Northern Quarter.

For my birthday my husband purchased a 2 hour 121 session with Silvia, I can sew already so through text I advised what skill I would like to learn. the location is super easy to get to and silvia was brilliant. She was easy to talk to and super friendly. She was confident with showing what to do and to allow me to have a go and make mistakes to learn from through her. I am thinking of buying more sessions as I got so much from it to enhance my own abilities. Would definitely reccommend her!

It was a great experience learning with Silvia. As a near-zero beginner in hand stitching, she guided me through starting my mini project and taught me the essential skills I needed. She is very patient, and I learned a lot during the lesson. I truly enjoyed the lesson!
