I have to confess, I’m hesitant about bunting!! It can look awful, it can look twee, but I plan to show you how to make sure yours is neither! I want you to make cool bunting so, it’s all in the choice of fabrics, mix of colours, scale & shape of your bunting and how you finish it off and decorate it. We’ll go through some bunting basics and then look at ways to customise it by adding lettering, embroidery, using ribbon/tape and recycled fabrics. It doesn’t have to be for a wedding or party though, you might just want it covering your house….!
Suitable for beginners and those with a bit of sewing experience.

* Class size limited to 5 people.

If you’ve bought a sewing machine that’s now gathering dust in a cupboard, or are a more experienced sewer in need of a bit of help with a new project, a few classes can help set you off in the right direction and boost your confidence.

Come along and make clothes, cushions, curtains, toys, do your own alterations, make a pattern from your favourite garment or whatever takes your fancy!

These classes can either be booked in blocks of 4, or paid per class, giving you the freedom to come to as many or as few as you feel you need.

Class sizes are limited to 5 people.

* Option 1 – £50 for 4 classes payable before the course starts (can be paid in installments, but must be paid in full by the start of the course). You don’t have to come on 4 consecutive weeks, however, your 4 sessions must be used within 6 weeks of your first class.
* Option 2 – pay per class at £15 each (must be booked and paid for in advance).
