One Day Course // Cost: £60 + Fabrics // Instructor: Cassandra Belanger, Resident Designer at The Stitchery
This one-day workshop is designed to be a complete introduction to the basics of sewing, with the added bonus that, come the end of it, you will emerge with a lovely self-made Christmas stocking to hang over your log-fire (or radiator). And you will have learned the skills to go home and make one for each person in your family!
Techniques learned will include sewing machine basics, stitches & seams, fabric terms and basic seam finishes. These techniques will then be applied to making a stocking in a fabric of your choice.

Cancellation & Refund Policy
Because of the popularity of our courses and the limited number of spaces available, we've now introduced a Cancellation & Refund Policy.

Please familiarise yourself with this policy (below) before booking on this course.
Non-Refundable Deposit
All of our courses and workshops require a Deposit to book your place. Please note that this Deposit is completely non-refundable. If you pay the full course fee at the time of booking, the Deposit portion of that fee is retained as non-refundable. The cost of the Deposit varies from course to course, but will be stated on the online course literature page.
Cancellation & Course Fees Refund
If you cancel your course/workshop booking 14 or more days before it begins, and have already paid the full course fees, you will be refunded these fees minus the Deposit.
If you cancel within 14 days of the start date of the course/workshop, a refund will only be issued if a replacement student can be found to take your place.
If you cancel your booking once the course has started, a refund is not guaranteed. In this situation we shall review the circumstances of the cancellation before deciding on appropriate solution.
