About The Course
Are you are eager to take on new sewing projects but find the pattern instructions difficult to understand? Perhaps you sew the same type of garment over and over again because you are afraid to tackle something new?
In the Intermediate Online Sewing Course, you will learn different techniques, including how to sew zippers, collars, sleeves, necklines and pockets, plus industry tips and tricks and much more.
With practice, this program will have you confidently following a pattern and sewing garments that you never thought that you would attempt. We’ll be there the whole way through, guiding you and showing you exactly what to do, all from the comfort of your own home.
It doesn’t matter where you live, as long as you have internet access and a device to learn from. The Beginners Online Sewing Course can be viewed on a desktop, tablet, laptop or a smart phone as often as you like.
I went to Sew n Sew to learn the basics of sewing and then planned to go my own way but I found Christeen to be such a knowledgeable and gracious teacher I have stayed to learn more and challenge myself.
I have made several dresses for myself and I am about to undertake a lined woollen coat. Thank you Christeen for unleashing my inner sewist.

Meet Christeen Jacobs
This Intermediate Online Sewing Course is developed by and features Christeen Jacobs, an industry expert with over 30 years of experience in the bridal and evening wear field.
Christeen grew up watching her mother, who was a gifted seamstress, to sew and bead beautiful gowns. “Sewing is an art”, she would tell her, “every seam must be perfect. The inside of the garment should look as good as the outside”.
Christeen loved the way her mother could turn a simple picture into a work of art. She followed in her mother’s footsteps, and went on to run her own made-to-measure Bridal and Evening wear business in Sydney for many years. She even won Gown of the Year three years running for her handmade creations.
But her real passion lies in teaching others how to create and sew their own garments, as well as giving them the freedom to wear what they want. She loves watching their faces light up as they realise what they can achieve after their first lesson.

I would like to thank you so much for these online classes. You explain everything so well.
I used to take shortcuts and didn’t think that basting and under stitching was important but now realise why I need to do this.
Thank you for the lesson on the invisible zipper, something I never thought I would master until I took your classes.
