Looking for a course

I started to research other sewing courses this evening to find a cheaper alternative to Cockpit Arts.

There is a wide range of evening courses at the London College of Fashion, all of which look really interesting. In particular, I'm keen on the basic sewing skills workshop:

or the more basic sewing skills: http://www.fashiontraining.co.uk/acatalog/More_basic_sewing_skills.html

I think the latter might be more relevant after my weekend course as I do have some basic skills. Both these are slightly cheaper than the Cockpit Arts course at £350.

Another place I found is Little Hands Design:

I'm not sure whether this is a privately run centre, government or charity run but either way it seems to offer dress-making courses for adults, as well as different courses for children. It looks like a fun place and may not be pretentious as I fear the London College of Fashion may be. Bit of a sweeping statement admittedly, particularly when a friend, who is a LCOF (my abbreviation) graduate, is really fun and not in the least bit pretentious. Anyway, I digress. The latter course seems much more reasonably priced at £90 a term. I think the best thing to do is call them in the next couple of days.
