My first lined and zipped handbag!

Want to add a stylish and practical piece to your wardrobe?
Then why not make a pretty lined and zipped bag with us? This bag is very practical because it has pockets and space to find everything in no time!

Together we will learn:

• how to properly cut the pattern pieces
  
• how to sew a zipper and attach zipper tape by the meter
• how to sew pockets and compartments
• how to place the lining
• how to make neat straps
• how to attach adjustment buckles

The prerequisites for this course are knowing how to use a sewing machine, having already sewn some projects (thickness, zipper...), and having already used a pattern. (intermediate level)
People who have taken the course "I sew my first garment" or other intermediate level workshops are welcome to this themed workshop.
English speakers are welcome! Likewise, teenagers are welcome for this course.
If you have any doubt about your level, do not hesitate to contact me beforehand.

You will receive the pattern in PDF format one week before the workshop; it will be necessary to prepare your pattern at home (rest assured it is easy 😀) to start the workshop directly.
We invite those who do not have supplies to make their bag to come 20 minutes before the class at the shop so that you have everything needed to start the course calmly.
