Teen Stitch Club – After-School Sewing for Young Creators!

Looking for a fun and practical way to learn sewing? Aimed at 11-16 years olds,  our Teen Stitch Club is a five-week after-school course designed to teach the essentials of sewing while making exciting, useful projects along the way.

Perfect for beginners or those with a little sewing experience, this class will guide students through:

🧵 Mastering the basics – threading a machine, stitching straight, and troubleshooting
📏 Reading and cutting patterns – understanding fabric layouts and seam allowances
✨ Building confidence through hands-on projects

Throughout the course, students will create a range of fun and functional items, including:

👜 A simple tote bag – the perfect first project
🎒 A useful pencil case or cosmetics bag – perfect for everyday use

If we move through these projects quickly, we’ll add even more fun sewing challenges along the way, giving students even more opportunities to build their skills and creativity!

We offer a course kit that includes fabric (with a few options to choose from), matching thread, webbing, zipper and interfacing available for purchase.

And if you’re missing essential sewing supplies, we also have a Sewing Gem Basic Sewing Kit available for purchase [here] to get you fully equipped and ready to sew!

However you may decide to bring your own supplies rather than purchase either or both The Teen Stitch Club Kit or The Beginners Sewing Kit. If you decide to bring your own supplies here’s what you’ll need:

• Fabric scissors
• Seam ripper
• Pins 
• Fabric marking pen
• 20cm interfacing 
• Matching thread

🧵Please note that access to the teaching space involves stairs. If you'd like assistance carrying your machine to the classroom, just let us know we’re happy to help.

🚗 Parking
Street parking is available on the roads surrounding the building. Unfortunately we are unable to park on the forecourt as this is shared with other companies. 

📅 Five-week course - 2 hour sessions (10 hours total). After-school sessions. Let’s get sewing! 🚀 Date TBC.
