hand sewing
Sewing is a life-skill which, once you’ve mastered it, it will become a lovely activity to turn to throughout your life. It’s mindful and peaceful and yet creative too. Not only that, it’s practical and useful to know how to sew!
In our hand sewing party we will give you a pre-cut shape which you can sew round to make a simple felt soft toy or sew into a hanging embroidery hoop. We will guide you on embroidery threads, needles and stitches. Our hope is that we can inspire you a little and you’ll love it so much you’ll be keen to discover more sewing and embroidery skills.
This party is designed with beginners in mind but if you have tried sewing before or come to one of our sewing clubs it will equally suit different abilities.
Before booking this party you’ll need to choose your theme and also whether you’d prefer to sew hoops or felt creations.
