This is a fun activity in Manchester
In this practical sewing workshop, you'll learn how to professionally cut fabric using commercial patterns. Throughout the two-hour session, you'll develop essential pattern layout and cutting techniques while preparing your own garment pieces ready for sewing.
This one-to-one activity welcomes participants of all skill levels, requiring no previous sewing experience. The focused approach makes pattern cutting – often considered the most intimidating part of garment construction – accessible and approachable for complete beginners.
During the workshop, you'll work with a local professional fashion designer with more than 25 years' experience in their city-centre studio near Manchester's Northern Quarter. The session provides step-by-step guidance as you learn to interpret pattern markings, position pattern pieces efficiently on your fabric, and cut with precision. You'll need to bring your own sewing pattern and fabric for the garment you wish to create.
By the end of this informative workshop, you'll have cut all the necessary pieces for your chosen garment and gained valuable skills in pattern usage that will benefit all your future sewing projects.
