FEEL & LOOK FABULOUS

Learn how to make swimming costumes and swimming accessories that fit.

HELLO I AM AMANDA

Hello I am Amanda Bowden, the Swimming Seamstress, and my mission is to enable folk to make themselves swimming costumes and swimming accessories that fit and in which they feel fabulous. I provide easy-to-follow workshops based at Felixstowe Sewing School, as well as providing on-line classes and mobile workshops. I will also make swimming costumes for you if you don’t want to make them yourself!
