1-1 SESSIONS:
We can organise 1-to-1 sessions for all ages and abilities...
If a group workshop doesn't suit you then our 1-to-1 sessions could be more your cup of tea. We can cover sewing skills or making specific items such as skirts, shirts or fabric animals for both children and adults.
All materials will be provided as needed, we have a plethora of fabrics to choose from and endless supplies of buttons and ribbons.
Sessions last between 1 & 2 hours depending on your project and you will be topped up with beverages throughout to keep you going.
Full tuition will be given throughout so it doesn't matter how much or little you currently know.
Just get in touch with what you are after - we are very flexible! We look forward to hearing from you.
Such a beautiful shop and really lovely helpful staff, I’m really looking forward to taking up a sewing workshop soon, many thanks 😊
