You will need a form that is smaller than required size (but not too small unless cutting a corset pattern), a decent amount of wadding, long pins, s few meters of stretch jersey and a few meters of calico (amount of calico is dependent on pattern you want to cut) A full list of notions and quantities is available on request.

Classes are on a private class basis
We are incredibly passionate about sewing and about enabling you to sew with confidence. We are also good at taking the strain off you so you can have a garment that fits and performs well (either with us altering it for you or us showing you how to do it for yourself).
Learn how to sew in a day! We’ll cover basic sewing and machine techniques in this one-day workshop and you’ll take away a lined, patchwork tote bag. All materials provided but bring lunch and your machine* (or arrange to borrow one of ours).
Plush Designer Cushion classes are offered by Sewing Centre for all skill level. There are in-store classes available in small groups catering to a range of sewing abilities including beginners and the more advanced sewers.
Learn to fit, sew and finish your clothes successfully or build on the sewing skills you already have (even if you are feeling out of practice). Create your own individual wardrobe using a pattern and fabric of your choice.
Our after school sessions are for those teens (13+) who want their own style, or who are bored with hand sewing and want to extend their skills.
The class will cater for intermediate sewers. All students will be helped, shown techniques and short cuts. Bring pattern, material & sewing kit, current sewing project, or idea to the first lesson.
