4 Day Pattern / Sewing Course

Mastering sewing and pattern-cutting skills is crucial in the fashion industry. Our courses will help you gain proficiency in machine sewing and pattern cutting, build confidence in working with industrial machines, and develop a range of related skills. With expert tutors, modern facilities, and a supportive community of fellow students, the Fashion Technology Academy is the perfect place to nurture your creativity and enhance your skills.
The Fashion Technology Academy offers a wide range of courses suitable for beginners and experienced professionals alike. Our courses are not limited to term time; we offer half-term, Saturday, and summer courses. We also have a one-day sewing class, which involves making a dress, trousers, and a skirt. We have an upcycling session on Friday’s for those who enjoy repairing and personalising their clothes during the school holidays. Our free monthly upcycling workshop at The Designer Collective on Fonthill Road is always popular. It’s a lively atmosphere with eager learners. Our team of experts will teach you how to upcycle your clothing to give it a new look.
This week, we completed a four-day Beginners Stitching Course and a four-day Beginners Pattern Course at the FTA. We received positive feedback from both campuses in Haringey and Finsbury Park. The learners left feeling inspired and motivated and learnt new skills.
