Fabric and Bag Hardware

You will need to collect your pattern from the shop prior to the course so that you can source your fabrics and notions; cut out your fabric and interfacing and complete any fusing of interfacing required.

We will be making the bag with a zipped closure and no fastening for the pocket.

Do not purchase fabric for the exterior with a one-way design or nap as this is cut in one piece.

There are a number of chunky seams so it is recommended that you do not purchase farbic heavier that a cotton canvas or wlightweight denim.

 All Machine Sewing Classes

    We do not provide sewing machines for classes as we believe that you will learn more from using your own machine. If your machine is too heavy to lift; let us know before the class and we can make exception by prior arrangement.

    We can help you to get your sewing machine from your car to the workshop space upstairs if you pull up outside the shop on the double yellow lines to drop it off. Then you can go and park in the car park behind.

    Lunch Breaks

    If your class goes over lunchtime you can either:

    • Bring your lunch with you
    • Pre-order your lunch from the lovely cafe opposite the shop (The Commute). They also now do takeway sandwiches and paninis.

    Our classes generally only break for a maximum 30 minutes so there isn't really time to go out and buy lunch during the day.

    We have tea and coffee available all day free of charge. In classes less than 3 hours we ask that you come early and make a drink before we start if you would like one.
