The Sewing Academy
The Sewing Academy was born from the desire to share the knowledge that I have gained from working as a designer in the fashion industry and also my experience of working with fashion students in local colleges and universities. Sewing can be great fun and a hobby that can be enjoyed by young and old. My classes are a great way for beginners to learn at a steady pace and for more experienced sewers to brush up and refine their skills. Whatever your experience a warm welcome awaits you at the Sewing Academy.
