  • We’ve all got a pile of alterations or mends which we’re just not sure what to do with, but know we are capable of doing something with… In comes my Alterations Day!

  • From my West Wales sewing studio, I will aid you in assessing your alteration and coming up with the solution needed to make your garment or item useble once more!

  • By teaching you essential alteration techniques, you will leave feeling empowered to take your alterations into your own hands going forward.

  • Alternatively, bring your pile of garments you’ve been wanting to alter or mend and we’ll come up with creative solutions to altering them for you to do in your own time.

How Payment Plans Work

I use a third party website, GoCardless, to manage payment plans for my sewing classes.


Simply fill in your details as requested, state how many payments you’d like your payment plan to be (there is a maximum of 2 for this sewing class) when prompted and pay your deposit. Your payment plan will be manually set up using the email address you provide and split into even payments.
 
Registering for a payment plan will automatically enrol you on the sewing class, and so the same cancellation policy applies.

What You’ll Learn on the Alterations Day

  • essential alteration techniques

  • learn how to alter a garment, or item, of your choosing

​Examples of alterations you can bring: shortening trousers/sleeves, mending, the taking in or letting out (if possible) of a waistband, or replacing a zipper.

Before the workshop​, you will have the opportunity to discuss with Camille the alteration you plan to bring so we can work out any materials you may need to bring to tackle your specific alteration e.g. a zipper in the appropriate size.​​​

Spaces are limited to 7 participants per class to provide the ultimate learning experience
