The sewing class
A small, unhurried class at the big table in the workroom. We start with how a sewing machine works, then thread it, wind a bobbin and sew straight seams on scrap linen.
By the end of the morning you will have sewn a tote bag in linen from our shelves, and you will know enough to start on a simple pattern at home.
Six people at most, so everyone gets help.
What to bring
- Nothing. We provide machines, cloth and thread
- Reading glasses, if you use them
