Teaching sewing

Madeleine Jenkins | sewing tutor

Madeleine Jenkins — Tue, 05 Mar 2013 19:08:34 +0000

I am a practising Costume Maker based in the Brighton and Hove area. I have worked for Theatres and Films of which I thoroughly enjoy.

I have a keen interest in passing on my knowledge, to pass on a life skill that will help you save money and give you a hobby for those long weekends in. Making clothes or costumes isn't hard once you know how and it gives you a great sense of achievement when someone asks you 'Where did you get that top?' and you can shout out 'I made it myself!'.

sewarty — Wed, 23 Mar 2011 20:34:56 +0000

Hi
I am a textiles teacher who wants to continue the culture of making things! With generational learning on the decline I feel that it is down to those who know how to craft, sew, knit, crochet, or just those amazing all-round crafty geniuses to educate and share their knowledge with as many people as possible.

I would like to start teaching adults how to make a variety of things in one on one or group workshops.

If you are interested feel free to email me and we can discuss an individual programme for you to try :D

I look forward to hearing from you,

I truly believe that the key to learning is through enjoyment. My classes are generally aimed at a beginners and intermediate level. I find that starting with basic tchniques are important as a basis for building confidence and quite nice as a refresher for those who have felted before. As you begin to progress help is on hand to offer advice on how to develop your ideas further.
