These sessions are for any of you who need a bit of extra assistance. From the total beginner or newbie patchworker to the rusty maker who has forgotten everything.  Or even the experienced dressmaker or home decor sewist who wants to have a go at patchwork but doesn’t know where to begin.

Maybe you are half way through the project and can’t remember where you’re up to. Maybe you’d like to begin to sew or quilt but don’t know where to start or what equipment to use. Maybe you’ve never stitched anything at all…. Well we can help you out in this session.

If you would like to make a basic couch quilt, a baby quilt or small sewing project but don’t know where to begin we can get you started. You can make cushions, bags, placemats or just learn the basics of rotary cutting and patchwork stitching equipment and terms.

The class is taken by Shop Owner Sharon Thomson who loves to see people learn new things and discover new skills. Sharon is very patient with timid beginners. She is can help those of you who want to learn some skills and then have a go at designing your own work in a supportive environment.  Sharon specialises in help with UFOs. Especially puzzling through projects half-made with patterns or fabric requirements lost or not working out. Sharon has had many students who have an idea of the quilts they want to make but cannot find a pattern. If this is you, Sharon will help you design your quilt and work out fabric quantities. 

There is no need to lock in for a term or even to come for the whole day so they are perfect for busy people. It is suitable for casual attendance or regular class members but is limited to 4 in class only.  This small class size is so that people are able to have individual attention as needed and it is not an overwhelming prospect to join in for the first time.

You will need to book and pay in advance, at least two days prior to class to ensure that there is availability in the classroom. This class does often book out so please phone in advance. I provide morning and afternoon teas and all day beverages. Gluten free catered for. Class members BYO lunch or visit a nearby café.
