Dress-making Workshops

Summer Cotton Pyjamas & PJ Shorts

This worshop is a great introduction for beginners in dress-making. We will work from a simplicity sewing pattern for this workshop - cutting from a sewing pattern. Sew Dotty will show you how to use a sewing pattern and what they signs & symbols mean! We will make up the pyjama’s step-by-step and sew them up in no tie at all! We will tread ribbon or elastic for the waistband and learn how to hem so they fit to size!

Prior to the workshop Sew Dotty will advise you on how much polycotton fabric you will need accoding to your size. We will of course stop for a well earned cuppa and homemade cake too!

Saturday 28th June - 10.30pm - 2.00pm
