Are you scared of your overlocker?
Or maybe you have an overlocker that you really don’t feel confident in using or even threading into another colour, so everything is overlocked in white?
The secret in owning an overlocker is to not show any fear, so come along to my one off evening class and I can show you how to get the confidence you need to make friends with your overlocker … they realy aren’t that scary once you get to know them….

But seriously …. lets sit down and chat about overlockers, how they work, what is differential feed and why do we need it?
You will sew yourself samples to take home and hopefully go home at the end of the night feeling confident to use your overlocker.
