Ever wondered what happens in a VIP sew-a-long?

Why not come join us for the newest addition to Sew Confident’s Sew-alongs – the Cambria Duster by Friday Pattern Company.

In this 7 hour class we will make this beautiful duster coat in your chosen fabric. The Cambria is a shin length, unlined duster that is perfect for layering. It features a dramatic, wide draped shawl-style collar. Tie the ties in back for a clean, shapely look, or wrap them around in front for a little more coverage. The coat should be made in a non-stretch woven fabric – softcoat or boucle will give you a cosy more structured look while a viscose or cotton would make for a beautiful draped effect – perfect for the beach! Opt for a binding in a vivid neon for a flash of colour that can be seen on rolled up sleeves and the vents or overlock edges for a simpler finish.

The Sew-a-long sessions are designed to make a good start on the project but please be aware you may not finish on the day, hemming and finishing cuffs etc will need to be completed at home or you can always book a Sewcial if you would like a bit more support with this!

We can even suggest some fabric if you are unsure what to choose.

All of our dressmaking classes are available to you as long as you have either completed our beginners course or have a sewing projects under your belt(such as a tote bags, cushions etc). So as long as you’re competent using a sewing machine you can attend any of our dressmaking classes. The Make Your Own Top class is the most basic of our dressmaking classes, and so is ideal if you’re not feeling 100% confident jumping straight into the deep end. As always drop us a message if you want to chat through the options hello@sewconfident.co.uk

As long as you have either been to our beginners sewing class or have a few sewing projects under your belt then you can absolutely come along to the Sew Along Sessions!
