Sue Hazell
On the one day workshop, students will be shown how to make a sample (or small real) curtain or roman blind with assistance, through demonstration & ‘hands on’.
You may choose to make a cushion, a small curtain or blind for your home. You will see samples & other projects in progress, along with how to achieve those results.
After the workshop you may wish to attend further one-day workshops to extend your skills.
You may bring your own sewing machine so we can show you how to get the best from it or use ours.
You will need the following:
• Sewing Machine if you have one – (or can be hired at £5 a session)
• Foot control with lead & plug for your machine (please make sure it is serviced & safe to use)
• Any attachments or ‘bits ‘n’ bobs’ that comes with the machine
• Basic sewing kit - comprising of scissors, pins & tape measure (or recommended ones can be purchased on the day)
• Old A4 folder- 2 ring type + pen or pencil
• 1 metre each of curtain fabric & curtain lining for sample
• Cushion pad (if applicable)
• OR fabric relevant to own small project to be made
• Measurements needed to complete project (if applicable)
• Sewing machine thread – Gutermann thread is recommended
Any of the above can be purchased or hired from the tutor given prior notice.
