“Had such a great time at this beginner sewing workshop. The tutor was incredibly accommodating and supportive, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and confidence-boosting. We learned a lot and it was genuinely exciting to come away having made high-quality, really cute pieces. I made a drawstring bag and a zipped toiletry bag, which I actually use now. A brilliant introduction to machine sewing and very satisfying to see what you can achieve in a short time. It was a lot of fun!! Would absolutely recommend!”

“My teacher was incredible! So patient and understanding of my mild learning disability! In this class, we made a drawstring bag and a little toiletries bag with a zip. My favourite part of this workshop was choosing the fabrics! I fell utterly in love with this thick green fabric! And the colour really POPPED again the bright neon pink zip (also provided).”
