Join Jonquil for an Exclusive Workshop!
Fearful of working on stretch fabrics? We can help you learn the best ways of handling stretch and jersey fabrics using a domestic sewing machine. In this 1-hour workshop you will learn how to get the best results by choosing the right machine stitches, tensions and accessories to get a professional looking project.
No need to bring a sewing machine, just bring a hand sewing kit with needles and thread and some small scissors if you have any. We provide a variety of different weight jersey/stretch fabrics for you to learn new skills on.
To book in please email Jonquil at mrsjonquilb@gmail.com with you preferred date.
