Description

PLEASE NOTE – This Class is going ahead with limited numbers in order to manage social distancing guidelines:

 

The idea of sewing jeans can be intimidating for even the most experienced dressmakers, but in this class, our talented teacher (Charlotte Newland of Sewing Bee fame) will guide you through every step, from trouser-fitting to inserting a zip-fly to top-stitching to installing jeans hardware.

The Ginger Jeans pattern from Closet Case Files is a classic 5-pocket jeans sewing pattern with a modern and flattering cut designed for stretch denim. You can choose from a comfortable low rise fit with narrow stovepipe legs or a sexy and high-waisted pair with skinny legs and a tummy-slimming pocket stay.  You can even combine the 2 if you like.  Under Charlotte’s watchful eye and pattern drafting expertise you will get your absolute dream jeans! (trust us, we’ve taken this course personally and it’s blown us away).

On day 1 you will make a toile of your pattern, adjusting the pattern to fit you perfectly before moving onto creating your final pair during the 2nd and 3rd days. (class finishing times may vary from day to day depending on the progress of class).

Please note this pattern is designed for American sizes 0-20. Please see the size chart for measurements. If you fall outside the size range, this class may not be suitable for you. (You can view the pattern and the size chart for this product here)

Materials list:

A copy of the Ginger jeans Pattern
Stretch denim in any colour/pattern (2m for toile, 2.5m for actual pair)
1/2 metre of 100% cotton in the print of your choice for the lining. (Nobody will see it but you so make it FUN)!!
Polyester thread for sewing to match denim
Three reels of top stitch thread in the colour of your choice.
Iron on lightweight woven interfacing (1/4 metre)
8″ jean zip (8″ of teeth, not the length of the tape)
Denim needles for your sewing machine
A pack of Rivets (the Prym ones that include the tools are the best)
Jeans Buttons

Sewing machines are provided for this course, HOWEVER – we have found it is super handy to have 2 machines per student.  This means you can thread 1 machine for topstitching and another for regular seam sewing.  So if you have a machine that you are happy using and would like to bring it along with you it is recommended.  Please let us know in the comments when you book if you will be bringing your machine.  You will then be given another in-house machine to use alongside yours.

As we have a space that allows every student to have their own cutting and sewing space, places are strictly limited to 5 pupils per course.

Guthrie & Ghani is a great place to buy the required bits and bobs for this class as they are masters of the Ginger Jeans and sell everything you need all in one place.  Here is a blog written by Lauren that details all of the supplies https://guthrie-ghani.co.uk/blog/closet-case-patterns-ginger-jeans

It is possible to break this course down into monthly payments providing your final payment is made 6 weeks before your chosen course date.  Please contact us if you wish to arrange a payment plan and we can set one up for you.

The earlier you contact us the smaller those payments can be each month.

Due to current COVID-19 restrictions, you will have your own area to cut and sew in with access to your own tools, equipment and materials. Positioned a minimum of 2 metres away from other pupils. We ask you to bring a face covering to wear during demonstrations where social distancing at 2 metres may prove hard to achieve.

    Marie – 21/05/2019

    One of the best sewing classes i have taken, great fun and you end up with an amazing pair of jeans that actually fits. Charlotte is a very good teacher and the studio is lovely to be in. The size of the class is very good and allows you to work without any real issues around working space. It’s tiring but not overly so, I never felt overly rushed. If you have a reliable sewing machine that is happy to crunch through layers of denim and you know it well i would recommend checking if it is suitable and you are allowed to bring it.

    Fantastic course and I’ve come home with a perfect fit pair of jeans. I learnt so much from Charlotte as well as my fellow attendees who were friendly and helpful. Charlotte is a great teacher who worked at our pace and the studio has everything you need. On top of that it was a real giggle as we tried on our jeans and Charlotte made sure of the fit. I am now making my second pair on my own and all’s going well so far 😀. I would definitely recommend this course.

It took me 11 years of continuous learning, trial It took me 11 years of continuous learning, trial and error to become a self taught, proficient sewer. ⁠
⁠
You might really want to learn to sew but not have much time to take a course at a college, you might even want to make a bit of a business from your makes.⁠
⁠
I’m guessing you don’t want it to take 11 years!⁠
⁠
Perhaps a few short months would sound better to you?⁠
⁠
I developed my online sewing club, to super fast track you to sewing mastery in the blink of an eye because I know how hard and frustrating it can be … because I did it the long, hard way! ⁠
⁠
The sewing club has everything I could have wanted when I was starting out, in one convenient location, for a low monthly investment … it's less than the price of a daily cup of fancy coffee! ⁠
⁠
You get … ⁠
⁠
🎀 Detailed video tutorials⁠
⁠
🎀 Well written clear instruction sheets⁠
⁠
🎀 Fantastic support forum where I am always on hand to answer your questions⁠
⁠
🎀 A community of fellow sewers you can get to know and interact with⁠.⁠
⁠
The doors are closing TONIGHT! ⁠
⁠
⁠
We have 150+ members and rising, who have already put up their hand and jumped on in.. don't get left out.!⁠

Don't take it from me...⁠
⁠
Here's what one of our brand new members sent me earlier today...⁠
⁠
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⁠
⁠
"I’ve finally taken the plunge!⁠
⁠
Today I signed up for your Bronze sewing club. 🎉⁠
⁠
I was given a basic sewing machine a year ago for my birthday and (apart from a few face masks) it’s sat unused.⁠
⁠
Well, today I have my very own room to sew in and not be in anyone’s way...no more excuses!⁠
⁠
I won’t be quick- running my own business and looking after 2 girls - but I am determined.⁠
⁠
You are so encouraging that I can no longer resist!"⁠
⁠
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⁠
⁠
Come and join in the fun ... you know you want to 😉⁠
