Sew a pair of Trousers

Service Description

Trousers can often be seen as the trickiest garment to find the perfect fit! So being able to sewn your own based on your measurements is an excellent skill! We will be choosing between two great patterns from Waves & Wild - the Wayfinder Trousers & the Waratah Wide Leg Pants Both are comfortable trousers which can be made from lightweight woven fabrics. Wayfinder are relaxed fit with elasticated waist & leg cuffs (although we often make these with a plain hem). Waratah, one of the most recent W&W releases, are a wide leg trouser with pleats in the front & gathered elastic waistband in back. Both have pockets (of course!) & can be made in a variety of fabric. Viscose & rayon blends will make a flowy lightweight pair, whereas using cotton or chambray can make them more structured, but still relaxed. When booking we ask that you let us know which pattern you wish to make & your measurements (or those of the person you want to sew for). We will then print the pattern & have it ready for you. We will learn how to cut pattern pieces and work through each stage of the pattern, enhancing seams with the overlocker, adding elastic & hemming the trousers. You will need to bring Materials - we will let you know how much you need we've received your measurements If you have your own you may wish to bring: Cutting mat Rotary Cutter Pattern weights Included in the cost: All equipment and tools PDF copies of Wayfinder or Waratah pattern* Elastic & Haberdashery Pattern printing *You will receive the pattern you wish to make during the course, but can purchase additional patterns from the Waves & Wild
