One 2 one sewing classes

If you would like some focused one to one time to really get to know your sewing machine or to get to grips with a particular skill you can book a private lesson. We can cover any of the projects we offer in our sewing classes or you can bring your own. With these sessions you will have access to sewing, overlocker and coverstitch machines, a cricut digital cutter and haberdashery and notions.

One 2 one sessions are £25 an hour. As with all our classes refreshments will be available to keep you fuelled!

Private parties

What are you celebrating? A birthday? Getting married? Having a baby? It’s March and you’re bored?

We can cater for groups of 5 to come and make something together. These sessions are perfect for a mix of abilities, you can choose from making one thing together (like bunting or a baby blanket) or make your own keepsakes of the day (like tote bags or cushion covers).
