Are you an absolute beginner when it comes to using a sewing machine or a bit rusty round the edges and in need of a refresher?

Join our popular tutor Tracey Symonds and learn all the sewing machine basics you need to get you started on your sewing journey!

• how to thread your machine and fill your bobbin
• basic stitches and what they are used for
• what needle to use for which fabrics
• basic trouble shooting

Use your new skills to make a simple tote bag, and personalise it using some of your ‘fancy’ stitches!

You will need to bring with you:

• your PAT Tested sewing machine – we offer PAT Testing* in store at £5 per item
• a basic sewing kit to include scissors, pins, seam ripper, chalk/marking pen or pencil, tweezers and a tape measure

If you are unable to bring your own machine, we offer machine hire at the cost of £2.00 per class, to be requested at time of booking.

*If your machine requires a PAT Test, please arrange this prior to attending the class – speak to a member of staff for more details.
