A progressive sewing programme for children aged 7 and up, running across the school term. Each week builds on the last, helping young sewists grow their skills and confidence step by step — from foundational techniques through to more advanced projects.

It's the perfect way to add something hands-on and creative to your home school week, with steady progress, plenty of support, and a real sense of achievement by the end of term.

Over the course of the term we will complete a number of different projects designed to develop sewing skills from week to week.

Course breakdown:

  • Week 1: Learning the machine

  • Week 2 & 3: Mastering straight stitch - Tote Bag

  • Week 4 - 5: Building confidence with sewing curves - Animal Plushie

  • Week 6 - 7: Adding fastenings - Zippered pouch

  • Week 8: Pocket attachment - Apron

  • Week 9 - 10: A taste of dressmaking - Pyjama shorts

What you will learn during the term:

  • How to set up and use a sewing machine

  • How to use a pattern template

  • Preparation, pinning, and cutting of fabric, including pairs

  • Various construction methods using the sewing machine, including hemming, lining, sewing curves and corners, pockets and elasticating.

  • Different stitch techniques and why we use them

  • Design skills by choosing fabric combination

What you will experience:

  • A relaxed home from home environment in which to create and learn. Projects are purposefully designed over 2 weeks to give students plenty of time without feeling rushed.

  • A friendly and patient teacher

  • Plenty of focused and hands-on instruction with only 4 students per class.

All machines, equipment and fabric are provided. Students are welcome to bring their own fabric but they do not need to. Just bring yourself and your enthusiasm to learn! By the end of the course, you'll walk away with a number of handmade pieces, a new skill set, and the confidence to keep sewing long after the term ends.

This is a drop and go service however there is a lounge area attached to the studio where parents are welcome to stay should they want to.
