Sewing and wearing self-made clothes made of new material is something very special in and of itself. It is even more exciting to sew a dress from second hand clothes, curtains, duvet covers or bathrobes, especially if these also have a special sentimental meaning. If you can't sew yet, I'll teach you. If you don't have any fabrics yourself, I also offer a selection of various washed second hand fabrics that we can process. The course includes - the design and manufacture of your own pattern in katcouture style (see photo) for your dress - The selection, quality control, and maximum use of existing substances / materials - Cutting and ironing the pieces of fabric with the help of the pattern / template - Basic techniques of sewing on the sewing machine and how it works - Tips & tricks that can also be used for future sewing projects Since everyone is very individual when it comes to the amount of time they need, the times are set individually and charged hourly. The lessons take place in Au/Haidhausen. Course suitable for everyone between 13 – 75 who has good motor skills and dexterity :)
