Note:
If you’re bringing your own machine, it must be in good working order. If you’re not sure, bring it into the shop at least a week before the class and we can check it out.
Established in 1988 as a sewing machine retail and repair service, Wellington Sewing Centre has grown to become a trusted source of quality supplies for all fabric and yarn-based crafts.
Under new ownership since 2016, we've expanded our yarn and dress fabric selections, developed a full schedule of classes for local adults and children and built our online capability so that creative people all around New Zealand have ready access to our products.
Alongside the changes, we've retained the business's original focus: we sell six brands of new sewing machines and have an expert repair person available to service domestic machines.
This class is on Thursday evenings and includes how to pad a form/dressmakers dummy to your desired size and then how to make a basic pattern from draping fabric on the form to make a simple bodice or skirt.
Do you have a Christmas project you need to finish? Always wanted to make your own Christmas decorations for your home or as gifts?
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.
Have fun being creative! We will sew, knit or crochet small and larger projects, learning and practicing machine skills and crafting techniques. Budding crafters between 8 and 16 years can learn and expand their sewing skills in these classes.
Have you never sewed before? Are you an amateur sewer who needs some guidance? Make something new or upcycle and transform an existing item. Create a new outfit by turning a dress into a top or skirt. Be limited only by your imagination.
