15 hours of intensive sewing lessons, spread over 5 evenings.

Have you already taken a beginner's course or do you have similar experience? Do you find the step to sewing clothes still a bit daunting? In this follow-up to our beginner's course, you will learn to read, transfer, and sew a pattern. You will learn the basics of making your own clothes and gain the confidence to start working with patterns.
You will make a sweater or T-shirt and a skirt with a zipper. As the third project, we have included a top. If you would prefer to make loose trousers with an elastic waistband or a hoodie, that is certainly possible too.
Do you no longer have enough time for this during the course? Then you can get started on your own afterwards with our videos on the Madeline Academy.

A fantastic course, specially designed as a follow-up to our beginner series.
