Sewing: Halloween Bunting Workshop (09C33FC/26)

What will I learn?

During the session, you’ll learn how to plan and make a length of Halloween bunting from fabric or felt. You’ll learn how to create and use a simple template, cut your fabric pieces, assemble your bunting flags and stitch them by hand or using a sewing machine.

You’ll also learn how to attach your bunting shapes to bias binding or cotton tape and add decorative details. The tutor will show you how the same techniques can be adapted to make more bunting at home for Halloween or other celebrations.

How much will it cost?

The course fees are shown at the top of this page.

What do I need to join the course?

No previous experience is needed. This workshop is suitable for beginners and for those with some sewing or craft experience.

You just need enthusiasm for making and a willingness to have a go. If you have never used a sewing machine before, or feel out of practice, the tutor will support you throughout the session.

What do I need to provide for the first session?

All main materials will be supplied, including a Halloween Bunting Kit.

You are welcome to bring your own fabric, ribbon or other embellishments if you would like to personalise your Halloween bunting.

Learners can continue working on the project outside the workshop or make further bunting at home.

What could I do next?

You could use the skills learned to make more handmade decorations at home, create personalised festive gifts, or join further Learning for Leisure sewing and craft workshops.
