Come along to a relaxed and friendly sewing class here and you’ll discover that size isn’t everything. Class sizes are limited to just 3 students for social sewing or 4 students for bear making, and the sessions take place in a creative and well-equipped home sewing space in Lindfield, West Sussex. The benefit of this type of sewing experience is that everyone receives all the one-to-one assistance they need.

You are welcome to bring your own sewing machine to learn on, but it’s no problem if you don’t own one, or don’t wish to bring it – there are plenty here.

Sewing days at Needleswift are Thursdays and Fridays. All sessions have the same, simple format: you can bring along a project you need help with; ask for help to master a particular skill; seek advice for altering patterns; or arrive as a complete beginner and get to grips with the basics and beyond.

In addition to sewing clothing and accessories, I am an artist bear maker. I design and make collectors bears to sell, and also teach several workshops each year.
