– Kate completed the Introduction to Sewing Course

“The teacher Tanja was lovely, she was super patient and helpful when me and other classmates got stuck, we had alot of laughs and I gained so much from this class!
We were provided a beginner’s sewing pack, they even provided me with left handed scissors! We were also given calico to practice our stitches on, and the sewing machines were super easy to use and learn. The venue is quite intimate but a lovely clean studio space, I am happily looking into my next class!”

– Soleil completed the Introduction to Sewing Course

“I cannot express in words how thankful I am to our teacher Tanya for her knowledge & patience with me at the Beginners Sewing Class.

On arrival I was nervous, anxious & uncertain as to whether a 55 yr old could be taught a new skill. With Tanya’s reassurance, guidance & encouragement, I learnt how to sew & for that, i am incredibly thankful. I look forward to attending more classes to broaden my knowledge & confidence.”
