There’s still time, and 15% off. So, that hem you keep meaning to fix? You could do it yourself.
Learning to use a sewing machine changes how you see the things you own. Trousers that are too long, a cushion cover that’s seen better days, a favourite top with a split seam: suddenly they’re not things to replace, they’re things you can fix, alter and make your own.
Our Intro to Sewing Workshop is designed for complete beginners. In one relaxed morning, you’ll learn the fundamentals: how to thread the machine, fill and insert a bobbin, sew straight seams and finish them neatly. You’ll put it all into practice by making your own tote bag to take home.
📍 Monkstown, South Dublin
📅 Saturday, 14th November
⏰ 10:00 to 14:15
🪡 Machines, fabric and all equipment provided. Just bring yourself.

From never having used a sewing machine to making a top in just a few weeks. Learning to sew well is about really understanding the fundamentals of how to used machine and troubleshoot issues.
In our recent Make a Top workshop students made their first garment after learning how to buy, read and use a commercial sewing pattern. I was delighted that a student who had only just attended our Intro to Sewing Workshop for beginners also attended.

We have a Beginners Workshop coming up on November 14th in Monkstown

Knowing how to use a sewing machines opens makes changes to clothes easy, here I bought a pair of shorts in the sales that I knew were too big and simply took in the waist!
We have two more workshops for new sewers this year, our Make a Top workshop in October and our Intro to Sewing Workshop in November, visit the link in our bio for more info

Back in action! Finally I have a moment to recap our early September Intro to Sewing Workshop that took place in Sandymount. A wonderful day with 10 students who left knowing how to use and troubleshoot a sewing machine and with their own tote bag. Our next workshop is a 2-day Make a Top Workshop also taking place in Sandymount on Sunday Oct4th and 11th. It’s a small step up from beginners but still manageable for those starting out and we cover all the basics.

Summer 26, This summer was a bit different, I didn't have my usual kids summer camps as ultimately in their current form it is too difficult to compete with other cheaper camps and also rising rent costs (something new awaits next summer). So, this summer was quieter that normal with just two workshops and lots of preparations in the studio for Autumn. The sun as usual was what we all needed
1. Shorts made from Hush trousers I never wore
2. Sweating in London tryng to find my usual tote bag fabric
3. Sandymount workshop and a serious need for lots of ice
4.Tracing an A0 commercial pattern for class
5. Workshop students having their scone break in the sun
6. Tote cutting for September 13th (one space left)
7. More sweating in London
8. I love the table set up as students arrive, it's all ready for you

Week 5 - Sewing for Beginners: Threading your machine. This part is just vital, if you have a problem when using your machine…it is most likely a mistake in the threading.
Ps. That final spot is now gone so our next Beginner workshop is Saturday, November 14th in Monkstown. Let’s get a sewing machine into every home 💪🏻
