We are very excited to invite you to join Emma Redfern of Hole House for a TWO FULL DAYS of sewing to create a Satchel Bag.The satchel is a traditional shape, perfect for wearing either cross body or on the shoulder. It’s a practical, but smart looking bag that can be made in tweed or canvas weight fabric, and with lots of options so it’s perfect for personalising.
As this is a two day workshop, you will have the chance to really work on the details of your bag, including which flap shape you choose (or draft your own!), the closure, how many pockets to include and whether you make the large or medium size. The outer can also be stitched in two different fabrics for some lovely colour blocking if that’s your thing!
We will be stitching a fabric strap too which will be fully adjustable. You will work through these design details at the beginning of the workshop with the tutor, so that you can create your own unique bag with confidence.
Suitable for adventurous beginners / intermediate sewists:
You should be able to thread and use your sewing machine confidently, a zipper foot is useful if you have one. There isn’t any technically difficult sewing but there are some bulky seams to handle.
All specialist materials will be provided, along with full written instructions and a paper pattern to take away with you.
You are required to bring along with you:
0.75m of an outer fabric, or two coordinating outer fabrics (regular width fabric approx. 140cm)
1m of lining fabric to allow for extra pockets
If you would like to use webbing for your strap, rather than making one, bring 1.5m of 38mm or 40mm webbing.
Matching Thread
Fully operational sewing machine.
Please note there is a £20 material charge payable to the tutor on the day. This includes interfacing, interlining, twist lock closure, strap hardware, zips, pattern and instructions.
Included in the cost of your workshop is lunch, tea and coffee throughout the day and afternoon cake.
