Sewing Workshop
Our Sewing Workshop is a place where fashion projects take shape; time is measured in centimeters, and the day goes by to the rhythm of stitching sounds made by the sewing machines. Here, students learn the art and craft of sewing, including traditional and modern sewing techniques, weaving, embroidery, garment construction, and spatial thinking. They also acquire knowledge about different types of fabrics and fabric dyeing techniques. As time progresses, terms like 'topstitching,' 'tacking/basting,' 'trimming,' 'overlocking,' and other sewing terms cease to sound foreign, and students adeptly apply these skills to create unique garments and accessories.
