This class is designed to help students gain confidence in completing successful sewing projects. After mastering our foundational Stitch Basics class (Unit 1), students join our ongoing sessions where they can work at their own pace through a variety of fun and engaging projects, each tailored to different skill levels learning new techniques with each project. Students are also encouraged to bring their own projects that match their abilities.

Our instructor ensures personalised guidance and encouragement, helping students achieve results they can be proud of. Whether they’re a beginner with basic sewing machine skills or a more experienced student, this class is for them!
