Come and learn to sew in our beautiful studio in the Scottish Borders. With excellent Brother Innov-Is 15 sewing machines, and a fully equipped sewing studio. Spend the day learning sewing skills with your child.
Is your child keen to learn to sew? It is really important that you also have the skills to support them to work safely at home - so this course teaches both of you together!
Sewing has so many benefits for young people, it develops fine motor skills, hand to eye coordination and there is a great sense of achievement in turning a flat piece of cloth into a finished item!! This sewing day will give you the basic grounding to build upon and once you are up and running with sewing, the possibilities are endless!
Your tutor Jenny has 15 years of teaching experience, a First Class degree in Design for Textiles and a Post Graduate Diploma in Art and Design Education. This class will be kept to a maximum of 8 students, so you will have lots of individual tuition and support.
