This is a fun activity in Broadstairs, Canterbury

Join a Hobbycraft Colleague one-to-one and ask any questions you have about your sewing machine! Need help setting up your new machine? Want to learn about how to use certain tools and accessories? Getting stuck on a certain technique? Our craft expert will share tips and advice tailored to you.

This is suitable for beginners looking to get started in sewing, providing the opportunity to get all the answers you need. It’s a great way to get a feel for your sewing machine, troubleshoot any problems you’re having with your current project in an easy, direct way or learn about features you’re not as confident with yet.

During the booking process, you’ll have the opportunity to let your Colleague know what you would like to focus on during the session. They’ll be able to prepare for a personalised workshop that answers all of your questions.

You’re sure to walk away a sewing pro, ready to take your designs to a new level!

*Please note that your workshop host will only have access to sewing machines that are currently stocked in Hobbycraft stores.

**Children 12 years and over can book onto this workshop but please note all children under the age of 18 will need parental/guardian supervision for the duration of the workshop. 

Bring a friend: You can now use the £5 add-on feature at checkout to invite a friend along with you, whether you’re working on a project together or you’d simply prefer having some company during the session. Your friend can enjoy any demonstrations given, and they are free to ask questions, but they will not receive the same practical, direct one-to-one support as is offered to the lead participant.

Keeping everyone safe
At Hobbycraft, we want our workshops to be enjoyable, inclusive, and safe for everyone. Some workshops are suitable for children, and where this is the case, a parent or legal guardian is responsible for supervising their child at all times unless the workshop is clearly stated as suitable for independent attendance. Our colleagues and instructors are there to guide the activity and support a safe environment, and if any concerns about safety or wellbeing arise during a workshop, these should be raised with a member of staff straight away.

“The teacher was very pleasant; she was brlliant! I enjoyed the experience very much. However I would have liked to have had the mechanism of a sewing machine,its capabilities, its limited uses to have been explained prior to the lesson starting but do understand there is a time restraint.”

“Lovely lady, very helpful and knowledable. Setting could improve, I cannot sit on a hard metal chair but the instructor folded up a blanket for me to make it easier. Staff generally could probably benefit from good training to understand Neurodivergent people. Some of the language was upsetting. Having said that, the instructor was patient, and I would book again with them.”

“I thoroughly enjoyed this workshop. Liz was friendly and knowledgable. She showed me what different stitches were used for and how to use the sewing machine, despite not having the same machine as mine she was able to make it relevant. I learned so much in just an hour which I will definitly be able to use going forward”

“Teacher Liz was very good. When I booked the course the hobbycraft machine I bought is not listed so had to choose another one from the list which is pointless. Also told not to bring your own machine. We muddled through, Liz and her supervisor managed to sort things out. Westwood Cross store, Broadstairs”
