Priti loves to sew. Her mum was a seamstress and she used to love to watch her work. She found time during lockdown to get creative and started sewing bunting, cushions and tote bags but quickly moved on to making clothes for herself and her children. Now there is nothing that Priti won’t have a go at sewing. She really enjoys creating something beautiful and new from a simple piece of fabric.
Teaching others has been part of Priti's day job for many years. She is now excited to be using these skills to help people get sewing and have some fun along the way!
If you have any questions, please feel free to get in touch.
Sewing this stretch garment can be done on either your overlocker or sewing machine.
If you are going to bring your overlocker we will have a sewing machine in the studio for you to use for the top stitching.
If you are going to sew the whole garment on your sewing machine, you will need a stretch or ballpoint needle (we have some you can buy if needed).
