The Big Jeans Workshop 29th-31st May

Create your own pair of perfectly fitting jeans in this intensive 3-day workshop.

You’ll begin by drafting a trouser pattern block to your measurements, then develop it into a jeans pattern tailored to your shape. A toile will be made to test the fit, allowing you to refine and adjust your pattern before cutting into your denim.

Over the three days, you’ll learn essential techniques for working with denim and achieving a professional finish.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a custom-made pair of jeans!

Dressmaking experience is essential.
