In this workshop you will learn to make your own pants using reclaimed jersey material and sewing machines.


This is a relatively easy project to make and a good one if you are new to sewing with jersey (stretchy material). However, you should be already comfortable with using a sewing machine in order to be able to focus fully on the specific features of working with jersey.


What you will learn:


- how to source suitable reclaimed material for making panties

- how to work with jersey and fold over elastic using an ordinary household sewing machine

- how to work with panties pattern

- how to cut fabric and construct your very first pair of panties

- what's the trick with the waistband and leg openings

- we will also have a brief look at how to create a pattern of panties you already have, so you can reproduce your favorite panties style ad infinitum


Materials provided: practically everything you will need.


What to bring with you: You can bring your own jersey (the basic t-shirt stretchy fabric, preferably with high content of cotton), the goal is to use reclaimed -- instead of new, store-bought -- materials where possible. You might have some t-shirts in a good condition you never wear (dig deep into your wardrobe!), you may have got your hand on some off cuts, or maybe someone gave you a no longer needed piece of fabric...? If so, bring in your fabric. If not, there will be fabric provided. You can also bring your notebook or a piece of paper in case you are a fan of note-taking (highly recommended).


What you will take home: A pair of your own handmade panties, the pattern you used to make them and a life-time panties-making skill you can further develop.


Capacity of the workshop: 5

      Bitey Fox.

      By Jenijenjen · Posted

      I've noticed the foxes are very frisky at the moment, it's mating season. Perhaps it was a male fox who saw you as a danger to his vixen and wanted to see you off.

      Bitey Fox.

      By Babbit · Posted

      I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!

      Recommendation: Spoiltdog aka Andy

      Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
