MONDAY 8th SEPTEMBER
2 hours

BINDING - mixed ability
In this session we’ll be practicing a very useful fine finish - binding! A technique that people often try to avoid, binding is a misunderstood finish that just needs a bit of low stakes experimenting to unlock. Once you’ve gained some confidence, you’ll find that bindings are very versatile in their uses and are just as decorative as they are functional :)
All techniques taught are backed up by beautiful fashion references for historical background and inspiration.
For all classes, you’re encouraged to bring along anything you’re currently working on for any troubleshooting and project guidance.
