Learn how to set up and use your overlocker with Freya and Sarah! We'll show you, step by step, how to thread and run your overlocker, including advanced techniques like sewing curves, chain piecing, and tidy ways to secure your seams.
So many people find overlockers intimidating, they are mechanical, noisy and have a lot of nobs and buttons. But with our course you will soon be best friends with your overlocker. We'll hold your hand and guide you through the whole course and share with you our tips and tricks. Sarah and Freya have been sewing with an overlocker for over 15 years and have so many things we're looking forward to sharing with you!
This course isn't only theory, we also guide you through a fun, simple project to make a cowl scarf and put the skills you've learned in to practice. We also have included 5 pdf downloads to support your learning.
This course is for you if you want to build your confidence and skills using your overlocker. It's definitely for you if you haven't opened the box your overlocker came in, and it's for you if you haven't got to grips with threading or changing the settings.
This course will take away all those fears and worries about using your overlocker and enable you to sew everything you've ever wanted on your machine.
There is so much else to learn! This course not only covers the basics, we also work you through all the settings and advanced techniques, working with different fabrics and finishes to elevate your overlocking game.
We'll even talk you through the steps needed to take care of your overlocker. Treat your overlocker to a spa day by cleaning it out and oiling the machine, keeping it running smoothly for years to come.
Ideally you will have your overlocker to sew along with the video, but it's ok if you don't and would like to watch the videos before you treat yourself to an overlocker, or watch taking notes.
