Beginner Sewing Friday Evening Workshops

A relaxed and beginner-friendly 2-hour evening sewing class designed to help you feel more confident using your own sewing machine.

Whether you’ve recently bought a sewing machine, have one sitting at home that you’ve never quite got to grips with, or simply want to refresh your sewing skills, these sessions are a chance to slow down, learn the basics and get comfortable with your machine in a friendly and supportive environment.

This is Friday Evening Sewing Classes

Our beginner sewing classes run Friday evenings, with a fortnightly Tuesday afternoon session running in between.

You can book individual classes, so there’s no commitment to attend every session. Come along whenever a date works for you and build your confidence at your own pace.

If evenings work better for you, these Friday sessions are a great opportunity to learn and sew after work or at the end of the week.

Christmas Sewing in November & December

As we get closer to Christmas, our November and December sewing sessions will have a festive theme, giving you the chance to use your sewing skills to create some lovely handmade Christmas projects.

We'll be working on things such as Christmas stockings, handmade gifts and festive sewing projects that you can enjoy making and take home with you. A lovely opportunity to learn new skills while creating something you can actually use, gift or enjoy at home over Christmas.

What we'll cover

During the sessions, we’ll cover the essential sewing machine basics, including:

• How to correctly thread your machine

• Getting to know your machine and its settings

• Understanding basic stitches

• Different seam finishes

• Practical sewing techniques

• Time to practise and ask questions

  
  

You'll also have the opportunity to put your new skills into practice by creating a simple project that you can take home with you.

The sessions are designed specifically for complete beginners, so there’s no need to worry if you’re starting from scratch.

What's included:

• 2-hour beginner-friendly sewing session

• Step-by-step guidance

• Learn how to thread and set up your sewing machine

• Introduction to basic stitches and machine settings

• Learn different seam finishes

• A simple sewing project

• Your finished creation to take home

What to bring:

Top tip: Every sewing machine is slightly different, so bringing your manual can be really helpful when getting to know your machine and its settings.

Don't have a sewing machine?

No problem! We have one studio sewing machine available for anyone who doesn't currently have their own.
