Intermediate Sewing Course in London
Take Your Sewing Further
Master new techniques and create more complex, beautiful garments in our advanced lessons.
This intermediate sewing course is private, practical and shaped around the skill or project you bring.
It is for adults who can already use a sewing machine and want Grace’s help with garment making, fitting or more complex construction.
Sessions are arranged individually, and a portion of every fee helps fund free classes for local children.
Your Passion, Our Purpose
A private intermediate sewing course gives Grace time to look closely at your technique, explain why something is not working and help you take the next step.
The National Careers Service dressmaker profile connects garment work with accurate measuring, pattern use, fabric cutting, fitting and alterations.
Your lesson can focus on the parts of that process that matter to your project.
