Machine sewing
Equipment required
If you have a sewing machine gathering dust, been gifted one or just purchased one and are wondering what to do with it / what else you need, you are in the right place! Alongside your sewing machine you will need various sewing implements but these will differ slightly depending on what you are sewing. Basic accessories include: machine needles, thread, measuring tape, pins, chalk, clips, scissors of different sizes, needle threader, pin cushion and bobbins.
Get to know your sewing machine
If you have never sewn before or are not a very confident sewer, you would benefit from booking our get to know your sewing machine course. We can provide tuition online or in person and will make sure that you are competent at threading your machine, understanding the controls / display, starting, finishing, sewing in a straight line and turning a corner. We will also explain your sewing machine accessories and advise you on care of your machine. Alternatively, you can find all this information on YouTube - it depends how you learn best.
Dressmaking or homewares?
Why not both!! If you have a project in mind and would like to use your sewing machine but are unsure where to start, why not contact us for a bespoke package deal? Alternatively, you could take advantage of our special 33% off deal which means you get 5 hours of support for £100. We love the flexibility this offers as once booked, the 5 hours remain open until you have used them all. You can choose the duration and frequency of your sessions until they are no more! Too good an offer not to take advantage of!
