Fancy having a go at sewing? This fun and informal taster session is the perfect opportunity to give sewing a try. During the session, you’ll explore some simple patchwork and sewing techniques while creating your own colourful patched piece to use for an oven handler or a cushion cover to take home. Ideal for beginners or anyone wanting to try something creative, this relaxed two-hour session will give you a taste of patchwork sewing and the confidence to explore it further.
What will I learn?
During the session, you'll learn how to prepare and join fabric pieces to create a simple patchwork design, practise basic sewing machine techniques and use your new skills to create a patchwork piece. You'll leave with your own handmade item, increased confidence and a taste of the techniques you could develop further on one of our sewing courses.
