In response to the growing DIY home decor trend, Just Fabrics has launched The Academy, an online platform offering a range of expert-led sewing courses to empower interior enthusiasts to create unique, handmade soft furnishings.
“With a focus on personalised and unique living spaces, we’re seeing a surge in interest in DIY home decor,” says Ross Pieters, Managing Director at Just Fabrics. “The Academy provides a valuable resource for anyone looking to learn new skills this year and express their creativity by creating handmade soft furnishings.”
The Academy offers a variety of video-based courses, with options to suit all experience levels, including:
- Frill Cushion
- Beginners Roman Blinds
- Beginners Curtains
- Piped Cushion
- Box Cushion
Renowned soft furnishings instructor, Louise Packwood, leads the courses, guiding students through each step of the process.
“Sewing allows homeowners to create truly unique pieces that reflect their personal style,” says Louise. “By learning to make their own soft furnishings, interior lovers can transform their homes into a space that is both beautiful and entirely their own. I want to help people unlock their creativity and find joy in learning a new skill that can be used time and time again.”
The video-based lessons are available on an online hub, meaning students can learn at their own pace from the comfort of their own homes.
Alongside the course content, the Just Fabrics Academy provides a supportive community for interior design lovers to connect, share ideas, and inspire each other on their sewing journey.
Available online now, courses start from £115. For more information, please visit https://www.jfacademy.co.uk/.
