Are there sewing machines at the venue?

Yes, there are sewing machines and overlockers. We will show you how to thread and use them if you need us to.

Can I bring any type of sewing project with me?

Yes! Dressmaking, home furnishings and small furry (stuffed) animals have all appeared so far!

Do I need my own scissors?

There are good quality fabric scissors available, but of course, if you prefer to use your own then you are welcome to bring them along.

What else do I need to bring?

There is pretty much everything you'll need apart from your fabric, thread and patterns. If you are making your own patterns then you will need some pattern paper. You may also want to bring your own pattern weights if you are cutting out.
