Bra Making Workshop | Chichester Sewing Courses

Organised by : Clothkits Ltd

Once your bra is sewn, you'll try it on and learn how to make any necessary adjustments. You'll leave with a personalised bra pattern, fitted to your shape, and the skills to make more at home. If time allows, we'll also explore additional techniques such as working with lace and foam, so you can confidently expand into other bra styles.

Is this course for you? This course is ideal for experienced sewists and adventurous improvers. You must be confident using a sewing machine, reading patterns, and working with fabric.

Materials: All fabric, findings and the pattern for your test bra will be supplied by your tutor for a cost of £10 cash on the day.

Optional:

• Fine, high-quality glass-headed pins
• Small, sharp-pointed scissors
• Washable fabric marker pen

Please note: your first bra may not be a perfect fit, but it's a vital step in developing a pattern that works for your body. With expert support, youll leave with the confidence and knowledge to keep sewing bras that fit and flatter.
