SEWING SKILLS – HOMEWARE & ACCESSORIES with Annabelle Davis
At The Oast Studio, Hartfield, East Sussex
Ready to take your sewing beyond the basics and start making useful, beautiful things for yourself and your home? This hands-on workshop builds on our Beginners Sewing and Sewing Skills classes, introducing a range of techniques for creating bags, cushions and other practical sewing projects.
We'll explore some of the key skills involved in home and accessory sewing. There's plenty to cover, so the session is designed to introduce a range of techniques rather than practise every skill in detail. We'll focus our hands-on time on a selection of techniques and projects, chosen to suit the group and allow you to get the most from the session. With clear demonstrations, practical guidance and plenty of opportunity to ask questions, you'll leave with new skills, useful techniques and the confidence to take on a wider range of sewing projects at home.
