workshop-cushion - Sew with Galina

Cushion workshop

Make the perfect cushion to suit your home décor. In just 2.5 hours you’ll design and sew your own cushion cover, learning a wide range of skills and techniques as you do. Choose from a variety of fabrics so that your completed cushion cover suits your lounge or bedroom.

I have patterns and designs for square 50cm x 50cm cushion covers, and for rectangle 60cm x 40cm cushion covers. Best of all, you’ll get step-by-step written instructions (for both cushion cover sizes) so that you can make additional cushion covers at home. Fill your house with colourful cushions and continue to improve your sewing skills long after completing this workshop.

A fun activity, some new skills, and a great way to decorate your home!

What is included?

Wide variety of fabric options
Cushion cover patterns for 50cm x 50cm or 60cm x 40cm
Ready to use sewing machines
All necessary tools for sewing
Ironing and steaming
Printed step-by-step tutorial that you can take home

My 2.5-hour cushion cover workshop includes all fabrics, tools and materials required to complete your cushion cover and take it home. This includes ready-to-use sewing machines.

Of course, you are very welcome to bring your own working sewing machine if you wish to practice with your own and gain new skills on a machine you are familiar with.

Who is this workshop for?

This workshop is for beginners who are keen to learn sewing techniques and for those who like other craft and creative activities but don’t have a lot of experience sewing.

I recommend this workshop for adults or kids 10+. It’s one of my 5 workshops for beginners and is a great option whether you have completed one or both of my other workshops.

I run workshops for small groups of 4-5 participants to ensure the right balance of personal attention and guidance throughout.

What other people think about my workshops

I had a great time learning to sew with Galina. I made myself a lovely skirt, and then came back to make an eco bag that my daughter now uses as a library bag for school. Galina was a great teacher and I’m looking forward to going back to learn more.

My daughter attended Galina’s school holiday program and learned to sew a variety of different things. Galina was supportive, explained everything clearly, and worked to each child’s skill level. It’s a great opportunity for kids to learn practical skills.

I spent ages looking for something for my child to do that wasn’t Minecraft or Roblox. A friend recommended Galina’s school holiday workshop and I booked right away. I’m glad I did - what a great opportunity for kids!

I had some experience sewing and my grandmother taught me the basics as a child. Galina started where my skills and experience finished, and helped me take my sewing skills to a whole new level. Her courses are really great and I’ll definitely be booking in for more.

I’ve completed all three of Galina’s workshops and made a colourful skirt, a practical eco bag, and a nice cushion cover. I then made two more cushion covers at home and now I have a whole set. Thanks Galina - see you soon!

Mum booked me in for sewing lessons with Galina. It was great fun and I learned a lot. I have now chosen Industrial Arts (Textiles) as a subject for my HSC. I am also going to try to sew my own dress for my Year 12 formal. Thanks Galina!
