At my children's secondary school I have started a sewing class.  The children are really excited and learning fast.  Fingers crossed that this is a success.

Teaching Sewing

A few years ago I went on a one day course and was taught how to use a sewing machine.


Over the years of machine sewing, I have built up my skills and confidence.


I also voluntary  teach sewing at a local school.  My aim for the children to be able to make their own quilts, cushions etc.  I think they will enjoy the handmade crafts teaching.  Arts and crafts seem to be more popular than they were. 


Maybe one day I can start my own sewing school.  I am really enjoying teaching sewing.

Sewing tutorials on the blog along with photos of memory bears, quilts and cushions!
