Sewing for the Terrified 2-day Intensive

Description

This intensive class runs over two full days. We start by taking you through the basic functions of a sewing machine and how it works.

Ellen Cottam reviewed: Sewing for the Terrified 2-day Intensive

"I took the plunge after researching beginners sewing classes near me and arrived for my 'sewing for the Terrified'. I was warmly welcomed by Catherine and with her enthusiasm and patience she soon had me sewing without being terrified! I thoroughly enjoyed my day as Catherine's teaching class is very well thought out coupled with handouts and homework o). Catherine has extensive knowledge and she is very generous with it. Due to my fantastic experience I have since booked onto a couple more classes with Catherine. I highly recommend Catherine's classes!"

"Before I attended Catherine's classes, I had little idea of how to use my sewing machine properly or how to sew even simple items well. Now, when I wear something I made, I actually get the occasional compliment!"

"Catherine is a great teacher. She is very knowledgeable and skilled and able to communicate those sewing skills in a practical and down to earth way. I go to Catherine's classes regularly and have made some lovely clothes. I highly recommend any of the sewing courses offered by The Sewing Room."
