Sewing – I sew my trouser hems
Are you tired of not finding trousers in the right length? Of having to go to a tailor to get your trouser hems done?
We have designed this course specifically for absolute beginners/beginners in sewing who want to hem their own trousers and become independent in doing so.
During this 2.5-hour course, we will learn the technique as well as tips and tricks to create perfect trouser hems using a sewing machine.
During this 2.5-hour course session, you will learn:
- how to prepare the hem to the correct length
- ironing and how to measure the right length
- using the sewing machine
- the necessary supplies (thread, machine needle...) depending on the trouser fabric, its thickness...
- the sewing process
Together, we will practice on Toile, which you will take home with you to remember the methods applied.
The course includes:
- 2.5 hours of sewing guided by an experienced teacher
- All supplies needed for the workshop (Toile, thread)
- use of the workshop equipment
- a welcoming smile, kindness, and respect for everyone
- unlimited complimentary drinks
