About this Event
Following the success of their origami bag workshop earlier this year, Amy Lou from Kaleidoscope is hosting a new, exciting dressmaking workshop at Whitley Bay Big Local and wants you to attend!
On this full day workshop, using a computerised sewing machine, you will have the opportunity to make your own stylish, colourful kimono!
The event will be hosted by Amy, designer and maker of Kaleidoscope, a sustainable bag and accessory fashion brand. Amy works with high-quality, bold, bright fabric and materials to create bags, accessories and jackets that stand out from the crowd.
All fabric, materials and equipment will be provided on the day.
Under Amy’s guidance you will learn how to do the following:
- Thread a machine and wind a bobbin on a computerised machine
- Sew kimono pattern pieces together
- Incorporate French seams into the garment for a professional finish
- Top stitch bias binding to the raw edge of the kimono
- Hem sleeves
The workshop is suitable for beginners who have some experience working on a sewing machine, as well as those who have prior sewing/dress making experience. It's a great opportunity to meet new people, develop your sewing/dressmaking skills as well as creating a stylish, cool kimono!
The all-day kimono sewing workshop will be held at Whitley Bay Big Local on the spacious First Floor on Saturday 27th July: 10 - 5pm. Lunch will be provided as well complimentary refreshments throughout the day.
Hope to see you there!
