Introduction to Machine Sewing: Make Pyjama Bottoms - Men's & Women's Fit

• Reading and understanding commercial sewing patterns
• Adjusting patterns for fit
• Pattern layout and understanding grainlines
• Marking up fabric
• Constructing an elasticated waistband with drawstring
• Accurate sewing and neat finishing techniques

The pattern is included, but you'll need to bring your own fabric. We recommend a stable woven fabric such as our printed cotton poplin, soft cotton plains, brushed cotton flannel, or cotton lawn.

Our classes are non refundable. Due our small class sizes it is very difficult to transfer your booking to a different date. If you cannot attend a class and are able to notify us at least two weeks before the class starts, it may be possible to change the date* but this is not guaranteed so please give us as much notice as possible to increase your chances. *Limited to one change only.

If you're running late, please contact us as soon as possible by email. Unfortunately, if you arrive more than 30 minutes after the class starts, we may not be able to admit you as this can disrupt the learning experience for other students.

In the event that we need to cancel a class, we will provide as much notice as possible and offer either a full refund or an alternative booking date.

At Ray Stitch, we'd love to welcome stitchers of all ages, but to ensure the best learning experience for everyone, we're unable to accommodate anyone under 12 in our workshops.

Young people aged 12-16 are very welcome in our classes but must be accompanied by a responsible adult (18+) throughout the entire session. The accompanying adult must book and pay for their own space in the class and participate alongside the young person. Students aged 17 and over can attend classes independently.

If you're planning to book for a young person, we recommend emailing us first so we can help guide you to the most suitable class for their age and experience level.
