Would you like to learn some basic sewing techniques? How to do simple alterations to get a really good fit?

Do you have a favourite thing that needs altering, mending?

Do you have a bargain you bought in the Sales that doesn't really fit?

Do you have an urge to make a cushion?

I've been doing alterations for people on the forum for years and have been asked many times about doing classes...

So, who wants to come along and learn ? When would work for you? Evening? Daytime? What would you like to learn? All thoughts, ideas welcome.

Thanks Sue, 07894438163

I have an open studio coming up 18th-19th June as part of the Camberwell Arts week, (private view, Fri 17th, 6_9pm)

So I am just trying to work out if we can do our first evening before that. The week after the Open Studio I run Arts Club at the Art Deli in Camberwell, this is a great venue as they have wine and I did wonder about running the class here, it would work well for basic hand stitching techniques, but for alterations we would need the privacy of my studio. So, we have options and I would be interested to hear your thoughts. Thanks

I'm now hoping to do an evening class on either Friday 24th or Monday 27th June. Let me know if you're interested? The cost will be ?20 for an hour and a half, or longer if we need it. Starting at 7-7.30, easy with start time, whatever works for you.

Hi Sue.


I missed all the above messages so was too late to join your session, but I'm really interested in classes. Not just for alterations but I have a pile of patterns I've been waiting to have a go at as I'm just a little too inexperienced to have the confidence and need to motivation of being at a class and having the support if I need it. I don't want to book onto a commercial class as they make you do their own patterns and I don't want to make something I won't wear!


Are you interested in running a sewing group like this regularly? Or could you give me tuition? I also lack the space to do the sewing.


Thanks,

Hannah

    • Surely nobody is going to want books in poor condition, unless they are rare and possibly valuable?
    • Is that not only true within certain hours? I just did a quick Google and this came up (not specifically Southwark): The Noise Act 1996 defines "night hours" as 11 pm to 7 am, and local councils can take action if noise levels are excessive during this time. This means they can issue warning notices or even investigate for a statutory nuisance if the noise is particularly disruptive, according to Gov.uk.  I'm sure it's more complicated than that, and I'm sure it's been discussed on here before, though I can't remember which thread.
    • Get on those waiting lists asap if you haven't already. I waited till after the birth and it was very challenging getting a place once our daughter turned 1.  She ended up at LEYF Camberwell (we had to accept 2 days to start and gradually got to ramp up 5 days). She absolutely loved it there after an initial shaky start but her key worker and team worked really hard to settle her in. They spent a lot of time giving her cuddles and making her feel safe. Great outdoor space and really caring, enthusiastic staff with low turnover. Would highly recommend. 
    • We are expecting a baby in a few months, and have heard about the epic waiting lists for nurseries in the area... We have been to look around, and are considering, LEYF Camberwell, N Family Club Camberwell and Purple Jay Herne Hill. Would love to hear any feedback from experienced parents!
