Overview

This course follows the same format that I have used to teach my school students for over 10 years. We will be starting right at the beginning, so there's no need to stress if you've never sewn before. If you haven't sewn for a long time or if you've been sewing for a while, but without much guidance or without a strong technical focus, this course will provide you some wonderful revision and you'll see a remarkable improvement in your skills and finished projects.We'll start by taking a look at the basic sewing terminology, sewing room safety, setting up a sewing machine and the important tools of the trade. You'll learn how to select the correct fabric and thread for your projects as well as how to read a basic pattern. There will be lots of time to practice stitching straight and curved lines, pivots in corners and seam finishes. By the end of the course, you'll have developed a deep understanding of the fundamental skills and knowledge required for your next sewing journey. What will you get from this course?Over 60 lectures, worksheets, ADDITIONAL reference sheets and 2.5 hours of video contentLearn sewing machine basicsThread your sewing machineWind a bobbinHow to choose fabricHow to choose the correct threadCut out fabricPin fabric to get it ready to sewSew straight and curved linesLearn how to pivot around corners and anglesLearn stitches and seam finishesRead a pattern envelopeRead a pattern bookPut your skills to the test by making 4 beginner projectsand so much more!
