Learning the ropes of the craft, students are getting acquainted with wielding the heavy iron. Weighing in at 5 kilos, it takes the pressing part of the process upon itself. . Pictured is the work of @felixquentin, who is working towards his Level 5 qualification as my apprentice. He drafted, cut and fitted this jacket for @uncoatedmanc almost entirely on his own. That’s pretty impressive after only just over a year of learning! . Happy Easter everyone! . #bespoke #tailoring #handmade in #england #bespoketailoring #cutting #sewing #heritage #skills #community #communitytailoring #sartorial #excellence #vocational #training #modern #education #workshop #studio #practical #art of #craft #creative #design #patterndrafting #patternmaking #madebyhand #style not #fashion We’re all set up at @the_textile_society’s Antique and Vintage Textile Fair and it’s absolutely delightful (I’ve already spent all of my pocket money on textiles I might bragg about in another post). . The Golden Thread is here on the assumption there would be time to read. Which proves to be utterly not the case (I do wholeheartedly recommend the read to any textile aficionado). . And of course my new favourite shears are here, for no particular reason other than looking beautiful. That’s today, on a normal work day, @whiteley1760’s EXO is facilitating my every move on the cutting board. . PS Bespoke trousers are by my hugely talented student, @johnsburrows . #bespoke #tailoring #handmade in #england #bespoketailoring #cutting #sewing #heritage #skills #sartorial #excellence #vocational #training #modern #education #workshop #studio #practical #art of #craft #creative #design #patterndrafting #patternmaking #madebyhand #style not #fashion Thank you @debroberts_decorative_interior, we are so looking forward to meeting you and all the other stall holders and visitors at the @the_textile_society’s Antique and Vintage Textile Fair on Sunday. It will be quite something! . #Repost @debroberts_decorative_interior ・・・ Can't wait to see the fabulous work of @thetailoringacademy at @the_textile_society manchester antique and vintage textile fair on Sunday! . #bespoke #tailoring #handmade in #england #bespoketailoring #cutting #sewing #heritage #skills #sartorial #excellence #vocational #training #modern #education #workshop #studio #practical #art of #craft #creative #design #patterndrafting #patternmaking #madebyhand #style
It’s already the last week of their course for the Level 3 students. They have worked incredibly hard, and have produced a bespoke skirt and trouser, from constructing the individual pattern to hand finishing, including the fabled hand button holes. It will be sad to see them leave. . Incidentally, if you are looking to learn the art of constructing a cutting pattern from scratch, we have a series of day-long workshops next week. Find out more on the website. . #bespoke #tailoring #handmade in #england #bespoketailoring #cutting #sewing #heritage #skills #sartorial #excellence #vocational #training #modern #education #workshop #studio #practical #art of #craft #creative #design #patterndrafting #patternmaking #madebyhand #style not #fashion Tomorrow @johnsburrows will accompany me to @the_textile_society’s Antique and Vintage Textile Fair in Manchester, where he will be available to chat about his time at the Tailoring Academy. . John joined the Level 5 Diploma in Bespoke Tailoring with a BA Fashion degree under his belt, and hit the ground running. Now in the final term of the course, he is working on bespoke commissions for his own customers - how good is that? . I look forward to meeting textile aficionados from around the country at the fair tomorrow. In fact I can’t wait! . Come and see us for a chat at our stand upstairs at the Armitage Centre! . #communitytailoring #bespoke #tailoring #training #handmade in #england #bespoketailoring #cutting #sewing #heritage #skills #sartorial #excellence #vocational #training #modern #education #workshop #studio #practical #art of #craft #creative #design #patterndrafting #patternmaking #madebyhand #style not #fashion In the spotlight today: @felixquentin and the jacket he cut for @uncoatedmanc from #thegreatnortherncloth Captured by the one and only team @withloveproject, we are looking forward to some ace shots of the process of making a bespoke garment from A to Z, by hand. . #bespoke #tailoring #handmade in #england #bespoketailoring #cutting #sewing #heritage #skills #sartorial #excellence #vocational #training #modern #education #workshop #studio #practical #art of #craft #creative #design #patterndrafting #patternmaking #madebyhand #style
