Make a tote bag, with cloth from our studio off-cuts.
Hello and welcome. My name is Claire and I own Couchman Bespoke an ethical tailoring company based in London, UK
Learn to make a tote bag or travel pouch. Cloth for use is made up of our studio off-cuts, though you are welcome to bring your own half meter of cloth. Ability to complete this depends on the quickness and accuracy in completing each stage.
This class is for all genders and ages. Choose from 1 to 1 or 2 person group class.
Bring a readiness to learn and maybe a notebook. You will enjoy a pleasant environment with a patient tutor near Canning Town station. All equipment is provided for your learning experience. You will be learning techniques that align with your abilities and take home all that you complete for reference.
As a business for good we collect donations for our Pay It Forward scheme to allow for people unable to afford classes. Pay It Forward (https://www.couchman-bespoke.com/product-page/buy-1-sewing-lesson-forward).
