Open Please bring

You will need to bring your own basic sewing kit including; scissors (fabric & paper), tape measure, pins, sewing needles, thread & unpicker. You will also need to bring some fabric for sampling (could be scrap fabric) and some fabric of your choice for your bag. Your tutor will recommend fabric type and length at your first session. If you have your own machine please bring to each session where possible. It is best to learn on your own machine to become familiar with it for future projects. If you don’t have a machine or are unable to bring one with you please let us know in advance so that we can supply one for you.
