Sewing Class FAQs
Quick answers to common questions about our sewing classes and courses in Johannesburg.
What if I’m not ready to do a full course and just want to try sewing first?
Our Quick Intro To Sewing is perfect for you! It’s a once-off class where you can try sewing, learn the basics and see if you enjoy it before joining a longer course.
Do I need any experience to do the Pattern Making Course?
Not at all! You don’t need any sewing or pattern-making experience. We’ll guide you step by step as you create your own pattern from scratch and sew it into a finished garment. You’ll also receive your own Italian Dressmaking Box Set, giving you the tools you need to continue making your own patterns at home with confidence.
