Learn the principles of zero waste sewing with this one day workshop and masterclass in making your own shirt with an oversized, boxy and fashionable fit.Join us for this one-day workshop and introduction to the general principles and skills of zero waste sewing by making a Shirt. It is an oversized, wide-sleeved boxy shirt made of a woven fabric fastened by buttons. The back has a neck facing and a pleat.
We will follow the instructions from the book Zero Waste Patterns by Birgitta Helmersson. Zero Waste sewing uses all the fabric with no pieces leftover for the scrap bin. Ideal for thrifted or leftover fabric from other projects. There are no paper templates for the garment - shapes are measured and drawn directly onto the fabric.
We will cover how to draw out the basic shapes, cutting fabric and assemble the garment sewing straight seams.
Who is this course for?
Suitable for those who have used a sewing machine before and can confidently thread up and change basic settings. There is optional use of an overlocker to finish seam edges -basic instruction can be provided.
