Tutor : Corrie Robinson

I have over 20 years of working as a professional dressmaker, working from my studio in Prestatyn, North Wales. I specialised in Bridal and Aerial wear, so from satin to stretch. I decided during the lock down that it was time to shut up the studio and concentrate on my teaching. I love passing on my skills to others, which I’ve been doing for around 16 years and I’ve also enjoying learning a few things from my students!

My classes are designed to be fun as well as informative, giving you as much knowledge as I can and helping to further your sewing skills. It’s all about time and practice plus a few handy cheat tips! I love dressmaking and I’m passionate about teaching, so hopefully the 2 combined gives you a great source to draw from, whether it’s making your own trousers to putting in zips. I look forward to seeing you all soon.
