Jaqkodí: Alteration Masterclass

About the Event

Join the Jaqkodí Sustainability Series for a hands-on Alteration Masterclass! Led by our talented Junior Designer and Workshop Facilitator Jasmine Dawes, this full-day workshop empowers you to care for, repair, and transform your clothes. 🛠️✨

Whether you're a complete novice or have some sewing experience, you'll learn key skills in garment alterations. Throughout this 6.5-hour session, we’ll cover:

• Tools & Machine Setup
• Hemming
• Taking In Seams for a Better Fit
• Waist Adjustments (including elastic waistbands and darts)
• Buttons & Repairs (holes and decorative patches)
• Zips & Fastenings
• Personal Garment Alteration

You'll have the chance to practice your skills on two garments: a plain t-shirt for practice and one item from your wardrobe that you want to alter. Note: Avoid thick or structured items like jeans or leather for best results!
