If you are new to overlocking or are deciding whether to buy a machine, our How to use an overlocker, Overlocking for the terrified or Making clothes using the overlocker courses are a great starting point. You don’t need a machine, you can use one of our lovely Elna or Babylock machines.
We have changed the format of our Sew Short Course programme in 2023 to make it more flexible for you. Instead of specific course dates you can now book any of the courses as a Sew Personal session or a shared Sewing Bee workshop. The session is limited to one or two sewers giving you lots of tutor time.
Jane White Tuition is an official supplier of Elna and Baby Lock overlockers. Contact us to book a free demonstration.
