DOMESTIC MACHINE BASIC SEWING

The basic sewing course is the starting point and gives the student access to the other sewing modules.

The basic sewing course takes 6 Saturdays to complete.

It costs R 1740, which includes the notes, all the fabric and patterns needed, free use of our sewing machines, and a FREE kit.

You will learn how to use a domestic sewing machine and will make samples of basic components of garments.  We provide the FREE kit which has a pair of scissors, needles, etc, as well as the fabric, pattern, and thread needed to make your samples.

Each course includes a free kit with all the materials that you will need to make the garment – you do not need to bring anything with you.

If you have not done Basic Sewing, but are confident that you can sew and use a machine, then you can do an assessment to make sure that you know enough to continue with the modular sewing courses.  It costs R 300 to complete the assessment. Call Charmaine on 011 333 0418 to book an assessment and she will give you the list of materials and equipment to bring with you.
