Create Your Own Georgian Petticoat

Sewing Through Time: Hand-Stitch Your Own 18th-Century Petticoat

Step into the past and master the art of 18th-century hand-sewing! This hands-on workshop will teach you how to create a beautifully authentic petticoat—entirely stitched by hand, just as it was done centuries ago.

Under expert guidance, you’ll learn how to cut the precise shapes needed for a classic Georgian petticoat (skirt) and practise the stitches used by dressmakers of the era. Bring your own fabric and materials, and begin constructing your petticoat during the session. You’ll leave with the skills and knowledge to complete it at home, ensuring an authentic, hand-crafted piece of history.

Join us for this unique opportunity to sew like an 18th-century dressmaker and bring history to life—one stitch at a time!
