Beginner’s Sewing Classes

These beginner’s sewing classes are perfect for people who are just starting on their sewing journey, are looking to build confidence or have a very long gap since they last used a sewing. You will come away with a new skill, sense of accomplishment and a lovely make to show for your work.

The classes include all the materials you will need plus refreshments

At Make it Fab we are all about the process as much as the finished item. We want you to go away having had a great experience in our friendly studio!

All fabrics and haberdashery are included in our classes
  • Classes are relaxed and informal. I want you to have fun as well as come away with something to be proud of!
  • All fabric and notions are included in our classes so you don’t need to worry about cutting into much loved fabric from your own stash until you are ready.
  • Refreshments are included in all sessions from classes to open studio time. These include tea, coffee, herbal and decaf teas. If you need an alternative milk, just let me know!
  • If you don’t get your make finished in the session additional studio time will be offered free of charge.
  • The computerised sewing machines help beginners start slowly and build up confidence, while allowing more experienced sewists to use stitches such as stretch stitch and one step button holes.
