Course for beginners (Level 1)

Watching how-to videos online is a great way to spark your interest in sewing, but personalised support from a professional is the best way to learn. Designed for beginners, my Level 1 course will teach you the basics of sewing through weekly sessions over 5 weeks. Have fun and create interesting things that you can take home. I have a range of weekday or weekend days and nights available so I’m sure there’s an option to suit you. Whether you want to sew for fun or for a living, this course is the best place to start.

Course for beginners (Level 2)

You’ve completed my Level 1 course, or you already feel confident about the basics of sewing? Progress to more advanced projects and learn new skills in a fun, supportive environment. Complete a range of projects designed to use and enhance your existing skills. This is a great way to take your sewing to the next level and you can make a variety of things to take home, many of which will complement things made as part of my Level 1 course. Still with the same flexible course delivery options. All resources and materials provided so you can focus on learning new skills and finishing interesting projects.

Private classes

If you have advanced skills but are looking to learn new techniques, or you are looking for individual attention to help you complete your project, or you are a small business owner looking to upskill your staff, then these private classes are for you. Ideal for advanced sewers and professionals, including seamstresses and professional dressmakers, who want to expand their skills to new fabrics and techniques. Chat with me today about how you can benefit from private classes and personalised instruction and support. Options from single lessons for professionals to multi-week courses for private groups.

Advantages

I have a range of courses, workshops, school holiday programs, after-school classes and private classes available for all skill levels. If you’re not sure what sort of course or workshop is right for you, send me an email – I’d be happy to discuss it and walk you through the options.

Booking a course or workshop is easy – each course or workshop has a Classbento link where you can double-check availability, pick your preferred date and time, and book online. You’ll receive an email from me confirming your booking.

Some courses and workshops include materials and patterns. Others are project specific or support learning programs elsewhere, so you’ll bring your own project materials with you.

All courses and workshops include use of my equipment like sewing machines and overlockers. You can, of course, bring your own sewing machine and I’ll happily help you to complete projects using it so that you can gain confidence and familiarity with your own machine.
