This is a fun activity in Southampton

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.

The lady teaching me was very informative, giving me all the basic details on how to use a sewing machine and how each tool works. She made sure I understood everything before rushing forward which I really appreciated because I can be a slow learner. We practiced setting up the machine and trying out different types of stitches. I really liked the practice of the zigzag stitch the most, because I know in the future that I will be practicing that a lot. I thank her and all the staff for being patient with me and helping me the best way I can possibly describe.

Gill was lovely and patient. She showed me first how to set up the sewing machine and then she let me do it. Then we started to sew and finally she taught me what I wanted to learn. Was lovely.

Emily was amazing. I had a list of questions and she answered all of them and more. She helped demonstrate and talked me through techniques. If I need any more help I will definitely be back in touch. Many thanks Emily.

Sadly I turned up to my class and discovered the session had been cancelled. I did not receive an email nor a phone call (which would have been the helpful at such late notice). This was very inconvenient for me as I am living with brain tumour and have partial vision. I was dropped off at the venue and therefore had to wait around for a pick up. I completely appreciate that the teacher was ill. I would not expect them to turn up. However, adequate and suitable notification ( phone call) to prevent inconvenience and anxiety to me would have been prevented.

Emily, immediately made me feel comfortable. I hadn't used a sewing machine for over 50 years. She was encouraging and took the time to compare my sewing machine to the one we were using. I feel ready to get started again with my own machine.
