(Afterpay available)
What you'll do
Fall in love with the art of sewing in this fun, hands-on class in Maryborough!The day will start with learning all about the special techniques to use on the sewing machine, like sewing straight and tightly curved lines, and neatening seam edges with pinking shears. Once you are comfortable with this, we will move on to how to lay out your pattern and cut it out. Then it’s on to putting your doll body together following the detailed pattern instructions. You will be guided through each step of this process, from working with haemostats and stuffing your doll to positioning templates and hand stitching. Your teacher will also give you help in picking beautifully coordinating fabrics from those on offer, and we will discuss simple ideas to jazz up your designs with embellishments. The clothes are quick to make and once again, the instructions provided are very detailed.By the end of the day, you'll leave with newfound sewing skills, a completed or partially complete doll body and clothes and ideas for future toys!If you don’t have time to finish, you will have all the materials and instructions needed to complete the body and clothes after the class. Note:
- Due to copyright requirements, you are required to purchase your pattern for any of the full-sized dolls from the Studio Seren pattern range via the Studio Seren website. Patterns may not be shared between participants, and participants may not use patterns I have purchased from Studio Seren.
- I have stipulated the full-sized dolls for this workshop as the smaller ones can be fiddlier due to their smaller size, and for the first one, a full-sized one will be more manageable.
