Course Introduction

Benefits of the Masterclass

Guided by Anna Triant, your budding fashionista will learn the art of stitching and designing their very own tutu. We will start with learning how to sketch a tutu skirt on a mannequin, discover the world of vibrant fabrics and their properties, explore the rules of taking measurements, master basic cutting and sewing techniques (both on a sewing machine and by hand), and learn an alternative way of creating the same style tutu without having to sew it.

Tutus were Anna's very first step on her journey of learning how to sew and design. This is where the magic began! We hope that Anna's passion and enthusiasm about sewing and design will lay the foundation for your little fashionista's love for this amazing craft.

Our masterclass isn't just about sewing; it is about fostering creativity, building confidence, and making memories if you as a parent decide to take part in your child's learning process. Believe us - the pure joy on your child's face as they proudly wear their handmade tutu is absolutely priceless! Secure your child's spot in this whimsical adventure today and let their imagination soar and their stitches sparkle.
