Sewing lesson(s)

$250

Hawthorn East, Victoria

15th Dec 2025

I would love to learn how to properly alter my clothes. I'm 4'11" so I have to spend so much extra money on getting my clothing taken up and re hemmed, or having dresses taken around the waist, or shortening straps etc. I'm looking for a patient, experienced seamstress to teach me at least the basics in altering clothing. I am at an absolute beginner level in term of my current sewing skills- I can thread my machine and have made a couple of basic crafts (tote bag, toiletries case etc) but otherwise not very confident in my skills at this stage Please note: I am a neurodivergent and anxious person, I am looking for a teacher who is patient and won't get frustrated by me asking questions or having to clarify/repeat instructions. I understand we may not be able to cover everything in one lesson, so I'm open to doing two separate lessons if that is necessary
