Description

ABOUT THIS CLASS

Private sewing lesson

Whether you’re completely new to sewing or looking to refresh your skills, in this hands-on, beginner sewing class, I’ll guide you through the basic foundations of sewing.

After completing this interactive learn to sew class you’ll be ready to start using your sewing machine with confidence and start altering and upcycling clothes – even make your own clothes.

Note: This class does not include pattern making or how to read a pattern. This is a class in itself!

In this class, I’ll cover

Basic sewing machine techniques
Tips for sewing different fabrics
Sewing kit essentials
The fundamentals of altering clothes

Note: Due to this being a shorter class (only 2 hours), I will endeavour to cover the above in as much detail as the time permit.

During the class we will sew a basic item like a cushion cover, drawstring bag, lined shopping bag or similar. These sewing projects are designed to encompass a range of sewing techniques suitable for beginner sewers.

Completing a project

During the class, we’ll complete a simple sewing project, such as a cushion cover, drawstring bag or lined shopping bag.

These beginner-friendly projects are designed to introduce a range of sewing techniques, giving you practical experience to build on.

Please note: This class focuses on foundational sewing skills and techniques. It does not include pattern making or how to read a pattern, as those are covered in a separate class.

Sewing Machine

Bring your own sewing machine to get comfortable with your tools, or use one of the sewing machines available at my studio.

Please familiarise yourself with sewing machine terms and conditions »

Try sewing to see if you like it.

A private lesson is the perfect way to try sewing without the upfront cost of purchasing a machine. I provide everything you need including a modern sewing machine, scissors, fabric, and accessories so you can focus on learning and having fun. It’s a great opportunity to see if sewing is something you’d like to pursue before buying your own equipment.
