Ready to transform your ideas into unique garments? My sewing classes are 100% personalized, designed so you can learn at your own pace and create exactly what you're passionate about. My Methodology: Learn by Creating What Truly Excites You. My approach is based on your motivations. Do you want to design your own clothes, customize garments, or make accessories? Perfect! I'll guide you step by step through your projects, while we perfect your technique to achieve impeccable finishes.
Forget about rigid programs; here you create what you want, and I'll make sure you acquire the necessary skills.

What will you learn? A practical example: Imagine you want to make a fabric bag. Here's how a class would work:
- Design and Pattern Making: We'll define the style, size, and materials of your bag. We can draw the pattern from scratch so you understand the process, or if you prefer, I can provide you with the patterns so you can get straight to work. It's up to you!
Key Techniques: You will learn how to cut fabric correctly, join pieces, make different types of seams, and attach zippers and linings.
- Professional Finishes: I'll teach you tricks to make your bag not only functional, but also look like it was made by a professional. All while you develop your own project.

Who are my classes for? For everyone, regardless of age or skill level!
- Absolute beginners: If you've never touched a needle, you'll start from scratch at your own pace.
- Intermediate level: If you already have some knowledge, I will help you refine your skills and take on more complex projects.
- Experts: If you're looking for advanced techniques or professional advice for a specific project, this is also the place for you!
My classes are aimed at anyone who wants to explore their creativity, learn a useful trade, or simply enjoy the pleasure of creating with their hands.

About Me

Hi! I'm Amanda, and my life has revolved around the fascinating world of design and sewing. With a solid background in Fashion Design from LCI Barcelona and over 10 years of experience in the industry, my passion is transforming ideas into unique pieces and, now, sharing that knowledge with you. A Journey Among Fabrics, Stages, and Runways. My professional path is as diverse as it is enriching, allowing me to master the art of needle and thread from multiple perspectives: Costume Design for Major Productions: I've had the privilege of being responsible for costumes in renowned productions such as The Lion King, WAH Show, and Pretty Woman. Every stitch and adjustment was crucial in bringing memorable characters and scenes to life. Film, Advertising, and Music: My experience also extends to the big screen and television, having worked on costumes for commercials, music videos, and films. This has given me an agility and an aesthetic vision adapted to different narratives and styles. Haute Couture and Bridal Wear: I delved into the delicacy and precision of haute couture as a stylist for Haute Couture fashion shows (TOT-HOM) and in the creation of dreams, working on wedding dresses at Bibian Blue. Here, attention to detail and the pursuit of perfection are paramount. Commercial Styling and Alterations: My experience as a stylist at Massimo Dutti gave me insight into everyday styling. Furthermore, my time working in a dry cleaner doing alterations provided me with an invaluable foundation in the construction and deconstruction of garments, understanding every fiber and seam perfectly. This entire journey gave me a deep understanding not only of sewing and pattern making, but also of trends, materials, and, above all, how to bring a garment to life and convey emotion. My Commitment to You: Now, I put all this experience at your disposal. My goal is for you to discover the joy of creating with your own hands, learning professional techniques in a practical and fun way. I'm here to guide you on your own creative journey!
