Format: Pre-recorded tutorial - 1 hour 13 minutes. You can watch it in your own time as many times as you want.

Level: Beginner & Intermediate

What you'll learn:

The key to long lasting garments is a high quality of make and this workshop will provide plenty of tips that you can take forward in your sewing journey. This workshop will take intermediate sewers through the process of a tricky and detailed zip fly construction complete with decorative binding.

These skills will be transferable to any garment you sew, in particular all future pairs of trousers.
