Over four weeks, we looked at the basics of machine sewing by means of a simple tote-bag project. This course was hosted at the Edinburgh Open Workshop in their Craft and Textile space.
During this course we explore the following:
- How to put together a basic sewing kit
- How to thread a sewing machine
- Simple sewing exercises
- Basic design and pattern drafting
- Hand sewing techniques (embroidery, quilting, beading)
- Fabric printing/stamps
This course is designed for beginners looking for guidance in their textile journeys. You leave this course equipped with the foundational experience needed to begin your own more ambitious sewing projects.
