Frida Shirt Workshop

Frida Short Workshop

Brilliant from start to finish, really clear instructions- pattern alteration workshop is very clear. Making alongside Hetty is engaging and sorts out the more difficult techniques like plackets, collars and sleeve fitting. I made this pattern in a heavy linen fabric and it is a nice smart jacket. Highly recommend- also I was given this workshop as a present and really wanted the shirt workshop and was very kindly accommodated to upgrade.

Great workshop and shirt!

I had previously purchased The Art of Shirt Making Workshop and made 3 over shirts which I obviously love. I decided to try the Frida workshop and was equally happy. I maybe did not need the workshop but enjoyed Heddy’s instruction and the format of the cideo. Next up will be the Trousers!

Elevated my sewing

This tutorial has literally changed my sewing. I had developed quite sloppy habits but following the instructions to the letter showed me the way to improve. Every step was clearly shown and there was a great sense of satisfaction when the yoke turned out beautifully. In fact the shirt is the best thing I’ve ever made; it looks really professional. Being neat and precise really does make a difference to the finish. I loved the pattern as it resembles a shirt I once had and had looked for years to replace. I’ve now made six (!) including in linen, Liberty wool and a jacket version in cord. My only small gripe would be that it might be better for Hetty to wear a contrasting coloured shirt to help distinguish some of the finer details of the process.
