When you work with colleagues you can walk over to their worktable to ask for advice or to be shown a new making method. If you sew at home, or work as a sole trader you need another way to learn new skills and keep in touch with industry trends. Or even simply have a chat about hobby sewing or a new workroom tool.

The Virtual Workroom aims to be your online colleague, ready to share ideas and professional techniques. You can develop your skills and get tips on how to solve issues you come across with particular projects or tricky windows. Sometimes the ideas are just for fun, or suggestions of places to visit for people who love fabrics and sewing.

All the information here is gathered from real workrooms and skills shared by experienced curtain makers who run their own successful businesses.
