Make a pattern that fits your measurements in this London sewing class. It's ideal for beginners and improvers who want to make their own garments.
From your teacher's Canning Town studio, you'll be guided through the steps of making a basic block pattern and how it can be used. You'll finish your textiles workshop with some pattern making and sewing techniques to help you in the future.
Your teacher will provide all the equipment you need and will adapt the class based on your abilities. If you know someone who would love to get started in sewing, this makes for a wonderful gift experience.
You will make a paper block that is perfectly designed for your measurements. It's an ideal tool for all your simple sewing projects like making your own clothes.
Once you have your bespoke fit block pattern, you can go on to do all sorts of textile designing! It can be used to make shirts, dresses and even jackets. We can't wait to see what you come up with.

My name is Claire and I am the all-rounder behind Couchman Bespoke. I grew up in Harlow, Essex with a creative mother and an entrepreneur father. After gaining a BA(Hons) degree in clothing design and tailoring from Brighton University, I ventured into the world and set up my company to combat the inequalities of the fashion industry I had been subject to.
By creating zero waste through pattern cutting, natural dyeing and sourcing the most sustainable cloth and haberdashery we aim to have very little negative impact on the planet and local people.
Now with 20 years of retail knowledge and 14 years of tailoring experience behind me, I feel confident in my ability to produce clothing that is timeless. Clothing construction is a great passion of mine that sits juxtaposed with a strong interest in the environmental impact of the clothing and textile industry. I aim to be a contributing factor in helping to reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry whilst educating people about the issue through my workshops and trading fairly within the supply chain.
