Personal, 1 to 1 Online Workshop - Interfacings, Waddings & Stabilisers
Interfacings, Waddings & Stabilisers Workshop
Confused by interfacings? Not sure which wadding, stabiliser or backing is right for your project?
This friendly, practical workshop is designed just for you to take the guesswork out of sewing materials, so you can achieve professional results with confidence – whether you sew bags, garments, quilts or embroidery projects.
What The Workshop Is About
Interfacings, waddings and stabilisers play a crucial role in how a finished project looks, feels and performs. Choosing the wrong one can lead to sagging bags, stiff garments, puckered embroidery or disappointing results overall.
Here, you will learn how to choose the right product for the right purpose, based on texture, structure, fabric type and intended use.
The sessions are suitable for beginners and experienced sewists who want to deepen their understanding and make better material choices.
What You Will Learn
During the workshop, we will cover:
Types of interfacings – woven, non-woven, fusible and sew-in
Waddings and battings – thickness, density, loft and flexibility
Stabilisers – tear-away, cut-away, wash-away and specialty options
How different materials affect structure, drape and durability
Matching interfacings and waddings to your specific requirements:
Bag making and accessories
Dressmaking and garments
Quilting projects
Machine embroidery
General sewing and home décor
How to test and sample materials before committing to a project
Common mistakes and how to avoid them
You will also have plenty of opportunity to ask questions about your own projects and challenges.
Who This Workshop Is For
This workshop is ideal if you:
Feel overwhelmed by the variety of interfacings and stabilisers available
Want your bags to hold their shape properly
Struggle with embroidery puckering or fabric distortion
Want garments that feel comfortable but still structured
Are tired of wasting money on unsuitable materials
Want to sew with more confidence and consistency
Benefits of Attending
By the end of the workshop, you will:
Understand why certain materials work better than others
Make informed purchasing decisions (saving money and time)
Improve the overall finish and durability of your projects
Gain confidence experimenting with new patterns and fabrics
Have clear guidance you can apply again and again
Many participants find that this knowledge transforms not just one project, but their entire approach to sewing.
