Great class! It’s small and intimate, with all equipment provided except for your choice of garment and pattern.. The teacher Christina is really helpful and very experienced. This enables you alter outfits if the formal pattern doesn’t quite suit your requirements, so you end up with a garment that fits well and is just for you. I really look forward to my Monday night class and would definitely recommend it.
Sam was a great teacher and the small class size meant we were all able to get almost one to one tuition. I'm a complete beginner to sewing but this has made me want to do more! Would definitely recommend.
Excellent pace, friendly teacher and a lovely atmosphere making the day an informative as well as fun experience. Thank you!
This session was really calm and there was no pressure. I felt well supported and feel confident enough to use a sewing machine. I created a bag as well as learned all about different fabrics and techniques. I am an absolute beginner and Sam was right by my side in our little group session in a pretty setting. I would definitely recommend and would consider going on another course.
Just what l needed to revive my creativity!!!
I recently attended my first two stitch club sessions after not sewing for some years . Our tutor was excellent working at every ones pace. I learnt new techniques and she shared creative style and perspective to the benefits of sewing. I left feeling proud and inspired as l made a tote bag and pyjama bottoms . I now feel confident to practice the techniques and sewing other pieces independently. Thank you for making us feel welcome ,a safe place where we learn with out the pressure of feeling less than if we don't get things right the first time...
Sam was a great teacher and it was a really joyous experience. Looking forward to signing up soon for another course!
Has a great class with Sam in June making my first ever cushion cover. It was a lovely small class of 4 students. I used Sam’s sewing machine but she provided material, threads etc. Sam is a great teacher & guided us superbly step by step to make sure we learnt about machines, stitches, cutting/putting material together, zips, types of thread, colours, fabrics etc. I thoroughly enjoyed it, learnt a lot & will be signing up for the pyjama class soon as well as purchasing my own sewing machine. Totally recommend The Stitch Club for beginners & beyond beginners! Thanks Sam :-)
Sam’s a great teacher - very accommodating and knowledgeable. Had a lovely day spent sewing and chatting to the other clients. Very relaxing environment. Would highly recommend!
Thoroughly enjoyed taking part in this workshop. Learnt a lot about the sewing machine, fabrics and threads. Sam is friendly and an excellent demonstrator who encouraged us and made us to take part in the workshop. I am more confident with my sewing machine now and look forward to attending dress making classes with the Pinner stitch club
I was very happy to learn how to use a sewing machine and make my own cushio
The beginners class I attended was absolutely fantastic. I became friends with my sewing machine. Sam is a kind warm and helpful person and I was comfortable throughout my time there .. though I made quite a few mistakes. I would highly recommend Sam’s class and I’m looking forward to attending more classes with her.
The tutor, the lesson was excellent. We went at a good pace, the explanation was very easy to follow, and the day was well structured. I learnt so much. In just a short period I feel I have the confidence and skills to invest in my own sewing machine. Many thanks for an enjoyable day, and I'm now the proud owner of this tote bag, which I made myself.
Absolutely loved learning from Sam! I was a total novice with the machine, and left with wonderful items that I made. Sam talked me through how the machine works, different fabrics, threads and techniques used to create accessories and clothes. Highly recommend.
I have enjoyed making the tote bag. You have provided a nice environment to make learning process easier. The pace of the learning process was suitable for me. It’s good that you sent us the notes to download later. This will help me to go back and remember the things learned.
Thank you.
Great day, had fun, made a bag. Really enjoyed it. Highly recommend. Relaxed atmosphere, really great learning environment. ☺️
The time flew by and i left with an amazing tote bag! The class surpassed my expectations and Sam was a great teacher. I am a complete beginner and now I’m going go get my own machine and apply what I’ve learned so would highly recommend. Thanks Sam.
It was wonderful experience. Sam was very gentle and very thoroughly explained and taught how to use my machine. I made cushion cover and zip wallet. Very happy with my sawing experience. Great thing is now I can use my sawing machine 😃
Thank you Sam for a really lovely day. You were so informative, patient and helpful as well as being a great teacher. I love my cushion cover that I made and really look forward to learning new skills in the future.
I really enjoyed my session. It was very helpful and inspiring in a warm and bright environment. I came away with a lovely tote bag which I hope to replicate.
Was enjoyable class learned a lot. I would go back again.
Super, friendly group led by Christina, whose support and knowledge encourages you to learn.
Learnt how to use my sewing machine at last, made (and finished) a lovely patchwork bag and had a very enjoyable day. Many thanks Sam. Looking forward to another class with the Stitch Club.
I am completely new to sewing and absolutely loved coming along to stitch club. Christina is a great and patient teacher who talks you through what you need to start you off. I’m looking forward to the next course!
I thoroughly enjoyed my first session and learned so much that I previously did not know about my sewing machine. I loved the friendly and relaxed learning environment- and felt able to put my new skills to work straight away. Thank you for a brilliant day - I’m looking forward to booking a future course!
Really enjoyable class for mums and kids to get creative , love my tote bag! Thank you Sam for your knowledge and patience, will definitely book again.
What a fab afternoon! Sam was so patient and shared so many tips and tricks.
We will definitely be back!
I have learnt to cut a pattern for a skirt so that it fits me and it is a very satisfying experience.
I’ve learned about creating a pattern based on my own measurements and have created my first custom made to measure blouse with help from my lovely instructor. I highly recommend this class for anyone new to dressmaking or anyone who needs a refresher on making ones own garments in a friendly environment.
I did the initial ' Getting started with your sewing machine' over 2 evenings and loved the experience so much I went onto joining the Dressmaking courses. Sam and Christina run a great club feel - so alongside the social element I was also learning so much each week.
Thoroughly recommended!
