Sewing club is perfect for anyone who wants to tackle a project but needs a little bit of a confidence boost. You can work on your own sewing project with the knowledge that there is an experienced tutor on hand to ask any questions and to give you guidance and advice.
Sometimes it’s difficult to get started on a sewing project at home because you might not have the space or you are too easily distracted with other household matters. At sewing club you have the chance to focus and make some of those projects that are gathering in the ‘to do’ pile
You’ll be working alongside others which is great for inspiration and motivation, and making new friends.
Booking is essential to ensure a space on this popular class. You need to contact us in person to book
