About this Event
Having mastered the basics of the overlocker this follow on course will show you how to expand your knowledge further as to what this machine can do besides neaten edges. Lets sew around curves, circles and practise starting and finishing seamlessly. We will sew on various different fabrics and experiment with speciality threads.
We will also try out some extra feet that can be used to speed up your sewing eg. piping, gathering and blind hem. This class is a great way to get a professional look to your sewing.
We will make a beautiful infinity scarf to take home

I am passionate about sewing and crafting.
I have been involved with sewing and dressmaking for all of my working life and nothing gives me greater pleasure than passing on my knowledge to people who want to learn to sew. I enjoy sewing, dressmaking, all types of craft and especially machine embroidery.
I have been working at the Abakhan store in Shrewsbury since it opened its doors in 2018.
