cafe sew|ci|ety - a tranquil place to stitch and flourish
Sewing is such a joyful hobby. It is great for absorbing the mind & rewarding you with something lovely – all of which is so great for our wellbeing. This is why I love to share my passion for sewing through teaching, so that others can discover this joy for themselves.

Improver Sewing Lessons & Dress Making
The above projects show some of the things that I have recently helped my improver clients to make. On my sewing project gallery page you will see a choice of improver projects for practising new sewing skills and building confidence. I also guide clients through dress making or home decor projects using patterns and fabric of their choice.

Lessons for Two
My ‘sew-with-a-friend’ lessons offer all the benefits of individual lessons whilst sharing the experience with a friend and reducing the individual cost.
Some projects do take a little longer with two but each person will get full one-to-one attention as and when they need it because I simply sit in the middle!
These work well for all ages, particularly great for mum & daughter time, friends catching up after work or school holiday activities.
See the ‘sewing project page’ for inspiration or the ‘teen and young sewing’ page for more information on my lessons with youngsters.
