Learn to Sew

Hello and welcome. My name is Claire and I own Couchman Bespoke an ethical tailoring company based in London, UK. I have been teaching sewingskills for 6 years now.

This hour lesson will cover the sewing machine threading, sewing straight lines,what to look for when sewing, taking it to a curved edge and even a few different seam styles. Choose from 1 to 1 or a group class. Whether you are learning to sew for the first time or want to top up on the knowledge you already have. Bring a readiness to learn and maybe a notebook for all that you learn, I may take some photos for use on my social media if you allow and can forward them onto you after.

Do you have a sewing machine that you have barely touched or are super new to sewing, and would love to have someone show you the ropes. Bring your machibe alone to the class or opt for a virtual class. We will explore the sewing machine through the differing components, dials and how to thread it up. If you have questions about the different feet supplied with your machine they can be answered.

You will enjoy a pleasant environment with a patient tutor near Canning Town station. All equipment is provided for your learning experience. You will be learning techniques that align with your abilities, and take home all that you complete for reference. If you wish to learn a specific technique please ask before the class date so I can be prepared for you.
