Hello, I’m Lisa Falconer, Founder of The Avid Seamstress sewing patterns.
With over 28 years sewing experience I now own and run a sewing pattern brand in Dorset. I teach many sewing workshops and 1:1 lessons.
I focus very much on all the elements of sewing which include the preparation; pinning, cutting and getting your garment ready to sew. I absolutely love teaching sewing and seeing so many of my students fall in love with sewing. My studio is absolutely gorgeous with large tables and plenty of space. I have sewing machines and overlockers and can guide you on buying your first machine or teach you how to use your machine to it's best capability.
I have many sewing patterns that are suited for all levels. Lessons are usually 1- 2 hours and we'll set a plan for your own personal sewing journey. I'll be able to guide you on fabric and haberdashery and introduce you to the amazing world of sewing. Already a seasoned sewist and looking to develop your skill? Absolutely! We can advance your skill and also look at your current sewing techniques to develop your skill further.
I am happy to teach group lessons and these can be arranged. Looking forward to meeting and sewing with you!
IMPORTANT
Please note that these lessons are done in my studio and not my home.
