Learn to make Pjs with Diko, owner and creator of Anton & Maxine!

Diko Pekdemir- Lewis 

Growing up with a very passionate and professional tailor father, it is no surprise that the apple didn’t fall far from the tree.

After graduating tailor and fashion design colleges, teaching, volunteering and working many years in the fashion industry, I was ready to launch my own label, Anton & Maxine, in order to create ready-to-wear- collections and  one-of-a-kind pieces for unique people.

Given the opportunity to teach workshops in sewing and fashion design, I discovered a new passion for teaching and sharing my knowledge. It was always a joy to see the happy and proud faces of my students after they accomplished their projects.

Whether you are a beginner who wants to start sewing or are more advanced and want to polish your skills, the different workshops I have designed will develop your skills, step by step.

These workshops provide the best craftsman skills. I will teach and guide you with new techniques, sewing methods and hands-on sewing skills, and each workshop will guide you through to a finished project!

I’m looking forward to having a great sewing time with you!
