One of our student's projects in design process

The latest from the Emporium

classes coming up

Hi All,
  • Tuesday evenings.  I am asking for expressions of interest for Move Over Peter Alexander  for 7-9pm...5 weeks . THe other option is Thursday evening 7-9. Note Intro to handsewing delayed till more interest.
  • Wednesday evenings: Intro to Patchwork is nearing the end of the course. Everyone has enjoyed it thoroughly. I am asking for expressions of interest for either  Intro to Patchwork OR Patchwork and Quilting for post beginners. $200 4 weeks
  • Thursday evenings Frocks or skirts..still trying to get enough interest for either to run (or MOPA)
  • Friday morning 10 o'clock onwards: We were hoping to get an ongoing group who would work through a program that the group could determine. If there is a group of 4 who would like to do an ongoing program we are happy to facilitate. I envisage that they would do the first two Intro classes and then suggest to Joss what they would like. They may for example want soft furnishings, childrenswear , Halfmade never finished or MOPA. The understanding would be that the whole group would have to commit. We feel this could be a great opportunity to become proficient in the areas of sewing of most interest while enjoying the group dynamic. Perhaps a joint child minding could be arranged.
  • Friday evening  this week Joss is away  so no HMNF(see Sat afternoon). This is a great time to get projects started, developed or finished. If you are a sewer and need motivation, can't committo MOPA or other but want to get on with something, want to do 'Sewing for young Children but frustrated that we haven't got another course going, looking for inspiration...HMNF is for you.
  • Sat afternoon 19th. Trousers again delayed a week but Soft Furnishings...Cushions 3ways. $95 (If we don't get enough we may instead do HMNF. )
  • Knitting intermediate Saturday afternoons. Knitting beginners Thursday evenings..places available.
Regards
Sarah

Introduction toOverlocking vacancy Friday and Saturday

We have a vacancy for Introduction to Overlocking Friday 4th 10.30-1.30 and another on  Saturday 5th 9-12. $95.
Note the class is a 'one off, 3 hour class in which you learn many uses of the overlocker , rolled hem, and includes making pyjama pants!
Bring nothing; all included
This course is a prerequisite for many of our courses and is probably our most 'packed with information and skills' course we have. It will really tell you where sewing is at the moment.
Email if interested as these cancellations come rarely
