Group Sewing Classes

FAQ

Our classes cater to all skill levels, from absolute beginners to confident stitchers. Each course description specifies the recommended experience level.

  • Group Classes: Tuition, use of sewing machines & tools, and any provided materials (e.g., patterns, handouts).

  • One-to-One Lessons: Personalised tuition, with guidance on your own projects or machine.

  • Materials: Some classes include fabric/notions—check the course details. For others, you’ll need to bring your own.
