~ Practical and creative sewing lessons in Oxford ~
for beginners and the more experienced
Whether you are interested in dressmaking, prefer sewing for the home (or are looking forward to adding to your bag collection!) you have come to the right place. Louise offers courses and one day workshops in a variety of practical and creative sewing subjects. For many, the popular 'Sewing for Beginners' course is the start of a wonderful and rewarding creative journey - gaining confidence in your new skills in a friendly and sociable atmosphere. For others, Louise's courses provide the ideal opportunity to develop their skills or expand into new areas - perhaps Freestyle Machine Embroidery or making cushions. Louise specialises in small classes so that all students - including the absolute beginner - can benefit from this experienced and patient tutor, gaining plenty of one-to-one teaching. New courses are added all the time, so why not find out where your exciting sewing journey will take you...... Louise at Wilderness/Vintage Festival,
