Three ladies came to our beginners bunting workshop.
Firstly they learnt how to thread the sewing machine, wind a bobbin on and how to insert the bobbin into the machines.
Next they went on to sew straight lines, practised zig zag stitching and pivoting. These are ways of getting to know what your machine can do. Once they were happy and confident we set about doing the fun bit, creating bunting.
Here are pictures of the fantastic bunting the ladies made.
Free cake, tea and coffee were supplied to keep us all going and lots of laughs.
If you would like to join us at one of our sewing classes go to workshops and book online.
Hope you’re all well on this very hot Thursday. Working upstairs at Mrs Sew n Sew on a day like this is hard. It gets very muggy up there and we’re just about to have an ice lolly break. 😊
Before that I thought I would share my work with you today.
I’m hand sewing this gorgeous heavy beaded lace on to a commission dress I have been working on. The sun is going to bounce of all these lovely crystals.
We had such a laugh at last nights beach bag workshop. Sewing, chatting, giggles and tea and biscuits were had by all. Everyone completed a great looking beach bag!
These bags are so large you can use them as beach bags ,bags for life or storage baskets. Even one was being used as a bag to put birthday presents in, instead of wrapping paper.
More bag workshops to come, keep an eye out on here and Facebook!
We run small friendly workshops at Mrs Sew n Sew. Here is our beginners machine sewing workshop photos.
We aim to get you and your machine working as one. We understand that the first step towards using a sewing machine can be scary but it doesn’t have to be. Come to one of our workshops to meet like minded people, learn new skills while having a chat and a cuppa.
Visit our workshop page for more details of what we do.
We had a lovely afternoon at Mrs Sew n sew on Friday. Debz came along with her 7 year old granddaughter Holly to make a Tote bag. This little lady was amazing
with her sewing skills. She only started using her machine a week ago and is already a natural. Happy sewing Holly!
Friday night sewing while the little one watches Charlie and the chocolate factory. New dress for next Saturday night hopefully.xx
