How can we help?
Q: Do I need to know how to sew?
Basic sewing knowledge is helpful to understand how pieces join together, but it is not required. We will focus on the logic of drafting the pattern on paper.
Q: Will I make a full garment in this class?
We focus on Pattern Making, but we can cut the fabric and assemble the pieces by hand (using pins or hand-tacking) to visualize the structure. Please note that this is not a sewing class; we focus on the logic of how pieces fit together rather than sewing machine techniques or finishing.
Q: What's the cancellation policy?
A: Free to cancel or reschedule up until 3 days before the class
Q: How long does the class run for, and what's the price?
A: 2 hours, £149 - £169 per guest (£149 for Private 1-to-1 Sketching (2 hours); £169 for Private 1-to-1 Pattern Making (2 hours))

Your teacher
Hi, I’m Anna Stella. Fashion has been my language for decades — I started with hand sketching and couture-style pattern making, and over time I expanded into digital design and modern creative tools. Today, I teach through Anna Stella Fashion Academy, where I guide beginners and aspiring designers to build confidence, learn professional methods, and create work they’re proud to show.What makes my teaching different is the balance between creativity and structure: we don’t just draw beautiful sketches — we build strong fashion lines, understand proportions, and translate ideas into patterns that actually fit. I offer online classes and private 1-to-1 lessons, with occasional in-person workshops around Manchester hosted at partner studios.As an Approved CPD Provider, my courses support professional development and continuous learning.
