Casual Unisex Jacket

£110.00

A simple yet stylish unisex jacket in an oversized, casual fit. Wear it buttoned up or with the collar open — you decide! Join Alison Leese, expert seamstress and owner of Ministry of Craft, for this one-day jacket making workshop.

Using a fabric of your choice (see ‘What to Bring’), master essential dressmaking techniques as well as using one of our Janome overlockers for a professional finish to raw edges.

The jacket features dropped shoulders, patch pockets and a one-piece collar. You’ll learn to sew facings, create buttonholes, attach buttons and add decorative topstitching using either matching or contrasting thread.

Advanced Beginner

As this is not a beginner’s workshop, you must already have some experience on a sewing machine or have attended one of our Beginner sewing workshops.

You will need the following materials for your garment (all the equipment will be provided). Please avoid very bulky, stretchy or slippery fabrics; a medium weight cotton woven fabric, ideally denim or other sturdy woven fabric like canvas is ideal:

  • 2m of 150cm wide fabric.
  • 50cm of fusible interfacing.
  • 5 x 2cm (approx.) buttons.
  • Matching sewing thread.
  • Top stitching thread in matching or contrast colour (optional).

Tea and coffee will be available at the workshop and you are welcome to bring along your own refreshments. There will be a break to eat, so please bring along some lunch or you can pop out to a local shop.

Our sponsors, Janome, supply computerised sewing machines (5060 QDC) and where required overlockers (MyLock 654D). Unfortunately, it is not possible to bring along your own machines.
