Leslie welcomes you to her beautiful workshop for an introduction to sewing. Are you ready? Then let's go!

After selecting the fabric of your choice, you can choose between 2 different models. The designer will then take the time to explain to you some sewing basics.

Then, with the help of a pattern made by Leslie, you will cut out the different pieces needed to create a beautiful kimono.

The fashion designer will then guide you in the use of the sewing machine by teaching you some basic techniques. The assembly stitch, the lock stitch, hemming, and even rib stitching will no longer hold any secrets for you.

After a few finishing touches with the serger, your kimono jacket will be ready to wear on a daily basis!

You will leave this introductory session with your own creation and, most importantly, a great deal of newly acquired knowledge to put straight to use during future sewing projects!

Merci Leslie pour cette après midi qui a passé comme une flèche. Chantal et moi avons adoré coudre ce kimono et avons découvert la surjetteuse avec grand bonheur. Et notre kimono est une grande réussite !
