In this beginners sewing series you will learn how to sew with confidence!
Week 1 we will look at the functions of the sewing machine and find out what all those little buttons, knobs and levers do! There should also be time to make a quick tote bag or drawstring bag to take home.
Week 2 we will make a patchwork square cushion cover
Week 3 Learn how to insert a zip and make little bags
week 4 Make a simple summer top or bucket storage (like the photo above)
The aim is to create confidence in your sewing through a patient and relaxed atmosphere that usually involves lots of coffee and cake. Booking essential and timings are negotiable dependent upon when you can get here.
I look foward to seeing you soon!

Among the many workshops here at Mrs McGregor’s is cardmaking. Not so much in favour these days, as fabric and sewing have really taken off lately, but with the eye popping cost of most birthday cards it is well worth buying the stash to make your own. You can buy a kit to make one, or an A4 design sheet for £1 that you can squeeze at least 2 cards from, or go mad and buy a whole paper/card stack along with double sided tape and a 50 pack of card blanks.
