Your sewing journey starts here!

A friendly, beginner-focused workshop that walks you through the basics of using a sewing machine. You’ll start by choosing your fabric from our selection, then be guided through a simple sewing pattern. After some cutting, you’ll learn how to set up the sewing machine and start sewing your envelope cushion cover. Your teacher will guide the whole group at a comfortable pace, so no one feels left behind.

Project: Cushion cover (45 x 45cm)
