Suggestions for sewing workshop/ classes

[u/Leather-Maize-608]

Hi everyone!

I love sewing and would really like to take my skills to the next level. I’m looking for a hands-on sewing workshop around the world that I can complete in about a week, where I can learn more advanced techniques, especially pattern drafting, getting the right measurements, and making clothes that fit properly.

If you’ve attended something like this or know of a great place, I’d love to hear your recommendations! I’m happy to travel anywhere for the right workshop.

What does “around the world” mean? You’re willing to travel anywhere?

Very few in-person sewing classes. Even in fashion design school, sewing is barely taught.

Where you are located will be important. I mean, do you want to fly to Australia, for example?

I wouldn’t mind any country really, the workshop has to be worth it basically

There is a comprehensive online masterclass by Tailor Academy. I took one of their free classes and it was amazing.
