Making Friends with your Sewing Machine – Advanced

You will undertake more advanced projects than in the beginner’s class.

Week 1 will be a get-to-know-you class where you will make a simple coin purse and then as a class, you will work on set projects that you as a class decide on.

Your working sewing machine. Please note it may be worth putting your machine in for a service before the class if it has not been used in years to avoid disappointment in the first lesson if it doesn’t work.

A basic sewing kit will be needed. We suggest at least: fabric scissors or a rotary cutter, quilting ruler, cutting mat, little thread scissors and pins

You will need to bring fabric and thread for each project so that the projects are unique to you and your style.

We will be in touch before the start of the course with what you will need for Week 1.

Please bring your machine to the sessions.

The advanced class is for students who have already got to grips with how to use their sewing machine. They should feel confident using their machine to sew basic projects such as those in the beginner’s class (Tote bag, cushion, apron etc).

*Please note this is not a beginner’s course, if you do not know how to thread your machine, please book a space on the beginner’s course instead, where your tutor will teach you how to do this alongside how to use the machine.
