About the Class
Create your own beautiful summer dress in a hands-on workshop using the Rossi & Fredy Wrap Pattern from The Bold One. This wrap-style dress is flattering on all ages and sizes, with multiple customisation options including neckline, sleeve, waist tie and length, so you can make a dress that suits your style. It's the perfect summer dress for exploring new places on holiday, to wear as a guest to a wedding or for an easy, everyday summer outfit. This workshop is ideal for confident beginners who have already made a couple of garments and want to take their skills further. During the workshop you’ll sew your own summer dress with guidance from our tutor. Options include: • Sleeveless or sleeved versions • Multiple neckline styles • Princess‑seamed bodice for shaping • Optional leg split • Waist ties • Length adjustments to suit your height To get the most out of the day, we recommend you cut your pattern and fabric in advance. If you need help with sizing, pop us a message, and our large cutting tables can be rented in advance if needed. What You’ll Learn • Working with commercial patterns • Simple fit adjustments • Sewing curved seams and princess seams • Constructing wrap details and waist ties • Finishing seams, hems and necklines You’ll leave with the confidence to complete your dress if it’s not finished in class. What to Bring • Rossi & Fredy Wrap Pattern • Fabric for your chosen design • Matching thread • Any interfacing or notions required by the pattern You can also order supplies through our online shop and collect them at the workshop, or choose a ready-made sewing kit. Please Note Everyone sews at a different pace. You may not finish your dress in the workshop, but you’ll leave with the skills and confidence to complete it at home.

Cancellation Policy
By booking a course or workshop with Ready Steady Sew, you are agreeing to the terms outlined in this cancellation policy. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us prior to booking. Please head to the Cancellation Policy header in the menu tab to view our full policy. Cancellation Due to Non-Attendance We understand that sometimes circumstances change, but we ask for your cooperation with our cancellation policy: Cancellations must be made at least 14 working days before the course start date to receive a full refund. 14 days or less notice: 50% of the course fee will be refunded. 7 days or less before the course start date: 100% of the course fee will be charged Non-attendance without prior notice will result in no refund. To cancel your place, please email us at readysteadysew@hotmail.com as soon as possible. All cancellations must be received in writing via email. Refunds will be processed the same day that you request it. However, please note that the processing time is dependent on Wix Payments (our payment provider) and your bank. We have no control over how long it takes for the funds to appear in your account, but it can take up to 20 business days in total, depending on your bank's processing times. No Refunds for Partially Attended Courses There will be no refunds for partially attended courses. If you decide that the course is not for you after attending part of it, you will not be eligible for a refund. We encourage you to make sure the course is right for you before booking. Transfers to Future Classes If you need to transfer to a future class, you must notify us at least 14 working days before the class start date. Unfortunately, we cannot accept transfer requests within 14 days of the class start date. We are unable to transfer bookings after this time frame as it's not long enough for us to refill your spot, and it takes a spot away from a future student. As a small business, we rely on full classes to remain sustainable, and offering transfers to everyone who requests them would result in under-booked classes. We encourage you to ensure you're available for the dates of the course you book. Once a spot is reserved, it is committed to you, and we cannot accommodate changes to future sessions regardless of the reason.
