Find the Right Workshop for You
We welcome all abilities! Here’s how to choose your level:


Never used a sewing machine before (or it’s been so long you’d like a fresh start)? This is the perfect place to begin
You’re comfortable sewing straight lines and curves, but haven’t yet explored presser feet or different techniques.
You’ve got the basics down – now build confidence with our Level 1 classes. Practice your skills through simple projects in dressmaking or home décor, pick up new techniques, and enjoy creating fun makes that are perfect to keep or gift.


You’ve mastered the basics and want to grow your skills with more complex patterns and features.
You’ve already built a foundation with some beginner projects, and now it’s time to take your skills to the next stage. Our Intermediate classes are designed to help you grow your confidence and refine your techniques. At this level, you can choose to focus on dressmaking or soft furnishings, giving you the opportunity to develop your skills in the area that inspires you most.
Confident with most projects, but looking to refine finishes and learn pro-level details.
As a confident sewist, you’re already comfortable with sewing patterns and have created garments you’re proud of. Level 4 Advanced classes take you further, helping you specialise and refine your dressmaking skills. From learning how to perfect garment fit to mastering pattern adjustments and tackling specific garment types, these classes are all about advancing your dressmaking expertise.
