VIP sews
Would you like to sew a new frock for the holiday season? Keen to learn to sew but feeling overwhelmed?
VIP classes are limited to just three students, so you get all the support and guidance of a private lesson, (without the added expense) and you get to meet other creatives! If you’re just beginning it is great to sew with company and guidance :) The advantage is you can learn from my mistakes, rather than experiencing them all yourself!! And advanced sewists, I want you to have the confidence to tackle a challenging, but rewarding garment! Maybe it’s time you made yourself something from silk? Maybe you’d like to draft your own facings and linings? Insert boning into a bodice or just work towards a really clean finish?
At our weekly VIP classes I provide a range of teas and delicious gluten free, dairy free, treats from Nourish by Sally. You will be supporting two local business, learning new skills, meeting new people & you will sew custom clothing!
VIP sewing workshops, $49 per session
Only 3 people per workshop
Full studio access
Treats prepared by Nourishing by Sally
A range of premium fruity and traditional teas

In these workshops you will learn a range of sewing techniques including my tried and trusted cheeky zip insert method. Inserting a zip can be easy! I have a load of sewing tricks and tips that you can use to sew better and faster. If you’re interested, I can show you how to make unlined dresses that look professional inside and out. Many designs don’t actually require linings or facings and without them you can save time and fabric!

Gather a small group of friends weekly, fortnightly or monthly and sew beautiful custom clothing. I teach foundational skills through to advanced dress making techniques to give you a professional finish.
Sewing projects
Based on your skill level and interests we will choose a sewing project for you to create. You may use your own pattern, or choose from my resources. Custom resources made for you, including steps of construction, and explanation of new skills.
Do you have a special event that you would love to sew an outfit for? You may like an individual class, where we design your garment/s, source fabric and trim and create! Let me illustrate your design before we sew - or share with you the design process.
