Sew

Learn the basics of Sewing in 8 hours (Drawstring Bag Project).

Sewing Classes - Singapore

If you find yourself needing many alterations for your everyday clothing, stop spending money by getting your alterations done elsewhere. You can become the professional by taking lessons on sewing. Classes will cover everything from simple alterations, like hemming or taking in a seam, to modifying simple dresses into gorgeous gowns for all occasions.

Even if you lack experience in sewing, classes will help you develop the basics needed for more advanced projects. You won’t have to buy all the latest fashions when you can modify your existing clothes to reflect current trends. If the trend goes out of fashion, you can simply remove the modifications you sewed on, such as fringes or beading, and get ready to reflect the next fashion must. Turn a regular dress into one you want to be seen out wearing at a trendy restaurant or hot club by adjusting the hemline, adding or subtracting sleeves, and altering the neckline. Through clear, concise private coaching in a group setting, you will be able to quickly and successfully modify anything you want to wear.


 

Sewing Classes @ Ang Mo Kio are held every Tuesdays. Everyone attending the sewing class has different skill sets as well as different sewing experience and objectives. Hence, attention is given on a one-to-one basis in a group setting. We regret to inform you that our teacher does not conduct private lesson at your house.

Time Slots (you are free to clock in your 2 hours lesson during one of these time frame – please let us know which time slot you are opting for):
– 10am to 1pm
– 230pm to 530pm
– 7pm to 10pm

Lesson Fee: $380 for 4 lessons (2 hours each) + $40 one time admin fee – please pay $420 to the teacher directly on the first lesson.

Basic Sewing tool set: If you already have some sewing tools, you can bring them along and purchase those that you do not already have, from the teacher

Sewing Machine: Please bring your sewing machine along for lessons.
**If you do not have a sewing machine yet, you can try out the teacher’s sewing machine. If you like her sewing machine, she can help you to order. Do note that it is important to eventually have a sewing machine of your own so that you will be able to do the sewing “homework” given to you and hone your sewing skills at home before each lesson…

Fabric Materials: You do not need to bring the fabric materials for the first lesson. The teacher will let you know when to bring your fabric material after assessing your progress.
