Always wanted to try your hand at sewing but have no idea where to begin? Or perhaps you are looking to reignite a love after a long ol’ break… That dusty machine of yours needs some TLC! Book yourself into our Beginner’s Course and you’ll be sewing in no time!
Our Beginner’s Course is suitable for never-touched-a-sewing-machine-before-beginners, and returning sew-ers alike. The classes are focused on building your machine confidence up, teaching you useful, transferable skills that will set you up for a successful sewing journey in a super friendly and sociable environment.
The class begins at the most basic level; learning how to thread up a machine, the ins and outs of the machine and then we’ll get cracking with making! You’ll leave the class with four sewing projects under your belt: a tote bag, bunting, a zipped (yes zipped!) and lined makeup bag and a piped cushion. These projects have been carefully picked to teach you a wide range of what we believe are the most useful skills for a sew-er. You’ll use them again and again until you’re a pro!
There’s no need to bring your own machine to class – at Sew Confident we supply the goods, including tea, coffee and unlimited biscuits!
This Evenings class runs over 5 consecutive days such as 5 Thursdays.
After completing this course all our other courses open up to you – that’s right even dressmaking! So jump in and we will get you where you want to be in no time whether that is making your own clothes, sewing your own homewares or making amazing quilts!
