October half term is filling up fast!

We still have spaces available for our Monday Teen-Only Session, but for our 8–12 year olds, Friday is now the only day with spaces left!

If they love getting creative and want to spend the day sewing, making and learning new skills, grab one of the remaining spaces before they’re gone.

All sewing abilities welcome , including complete beginners.

A little behind the scenes of what goes on in the studio… from tidying up after our Teen & Young Creatives sessions to making a denim sample for our Skirt Workshop.

Our 4-hour Skirt Workshop is all about building your confidence with garment making and learning the skills to make something you’ll actually want to wear again and again.

And of course, we’ll teach you how to add pockets… because where else are we supposed to put our hands?

£80 | Maximum 5 people
Fabric can be brought from home or purchased from us on the day.

Have you spotted our little sewing studio on Brixton Hill yet?

We’re tucked away in South West London, running sewing workshops for adults and children — from complete beginners picking up sewing for the first time to those wanting to build their skills and make something they’re really proud of.

If you’re local and you’ve been thinking about learning to sew, come and discover what we do!

This isn’t something I would normally ask, but if you’ve ever attended one of my workshops, brought your child to a class or simply spent some time in the studio, I could really use your help.

Shortly after I shared a post explaining why I have to stand by my cancellation policy, I received a number of negative reviews, one after another, which I don’t believe reflect genuine experiences of my studio.

Reviews have a huge impact on a small business like mine, and it’s upsetting to see something we’ve worked so hard to build represented in a way that I don’t recognise.

So, if you’ve genuinely had a positive experience with us, I would be incredibly grateful if you could take a couple of minutes to leave an honest review and share your experience.

I don’t expect everyone to love everything I do, and genuine feedback will always be welcome. I’m simply asking the people who actually know my little studio to help make sure the reviews reflect the real experiences of the people who come through our doors.

Thank you, as always, for supporting me, my team and this little sewing community. It means more than you know.

Your child is ready to try sewing their very own fabric pot.

They can follow along with our one-minute tutorial, or join us for an after-school or weekend sewing session. We’ll guide them through each step, build their confidence, and make learning to sew fun and rewarding

Turns out sewing is kinda chic.

A little studio in Brixton where you can learn to sew, make your own clothes, mend what you already own and meet some lovely people along the way.

Maybe we’re biased though…

If you were hoping to book onto our children’s Summer Sewing Camp but it had already sold out, we’ve got some good news.

We’ve added one extra workshop on 21st August.

From 10am–4pm, children will make either a zip pouch or a quilted laptop sleeve while learning new sewing skills in our small, beginner-friendly studio in Brixton.

We provide all the fabrics, tools and materials, so they just need to bring a packed lunch.

If you’ve been searching for children’s sewing classes in London or a creative activity for the summer holidays, we’d love to welcome them.

We know cancellation policies aren’t the most exciting topic, but they’re one of the things that help keep our little sewing studio running. Thank you for understanding, supporting small businesses, and allowing us to keep class sizes small, prices fair, and the quality of our workshops high.
