Bobbin Sewing Room

Just look at these little beauties- I call them coin trays but there are so many different uses for them. A little dish to use at your sewing machine, or use to keep your keys and the list goes on. This is a make and take workshop where I supply everything on the evening. Well done girls🙂

One of the best ways to spend your Saturday- patchwork and quilting.
Look at the beautiful examples and they all look so different. Well done everyone 🙂

I have two spaces available this Saturday (tomorrow) for the quilted patchwork table runner workshop.
If you would like to learn the art of patchwork and quilting (two different ways) come along for this fab class.
Bring some of your scraps of your fabric or I have fabrics in the sewing room.
A day of sewing with tea and homemade cakes - what could be better?
Contact me if you would like more information or to book a place🙂

Just look at these wonderful makes on the beginners /refreshers course, have you been hit by the sewing bug whilst the great British sewing bee program is on our tv’s? If so then why not book a place on my next beginners/refreshers course. Have a look on my website to see what courses would suit you🧵🪡

Fun morning in the sewing room today, being creative, a lot of mess but really worth it for the end result. I think these cushions will be put in pride of place - they are fantastic, well done girls

The Great British Sewing Bee - well what do you think?
I am sure it’s all nerves and they will relax a little once they get used to sewing on a time limit.
Did you enjoy the program?
Are you a sewer or would you like to learn?
I have a couple of places on the beginners/refreshers course starting tomorrow evening. Come along and start your sewing journey, I promise it isn’t as stressful as the program and we have tea and homemade cakes😋

It’s official- the great British sewing bee is back on our screens on Tuesday 21st May! Just two weeks to go……
They have a new presenter Kiell, not sure if he is into sewing but perhaps he may be into crochet - do you think he made his top?🤔

It was a busy week in the sewing room this week, a sew social, dressmaking and advanced dressmaking, and these ladies are just starting out on their sewing journey and look at these wonderful lined tote bags they made, looking forward to making their cushion covers on their last beginners/refresher course

Are you in need of a sewing fix?
I am offering one of my make and take workshops on Thursday 9th May 7pm to 9pm - all you need to bring is your sewing machine, sewing box and thread, I will provide the rest to make a pin cushion.
I never understand why a sewer buys a pin cushion🤔, you make so many items and these are so useful!

Just heard about a potential date for ”The Great British Sewing Bee” to return to our screen!
Don’t t hold me to this but I heard Tuesday 21st May.
It’s a great to see other sewers competing and creating lots different items, but nothing competes with a class at Bobbin Sewing Room!, with a cups of tea/coffee and a home made cake!
Be inspired and start sewing🧵🪡🙂

And relax……..
I wonder how many of these pj bottoms are being worn right now🤔
Some amazing fabrics used today to make these fabulous pj bottoms
Well done girls and enjoy them🙂

There is nothing better than the sun shining and doing what you want, well today, we had a fab time in the sewing room making the “Jenny Bag”. Each bag was made from water resistant fabric in two colours and students own choice of linings. We had two linings all the way from Thailand!
Well done everyone, they all look so professional 🙂

There is something so exciting when you learn something new.
Well done girls, your bags look fantastic.
Lined tote bag made at Bobbin Sewing Room beginners/refreshers course.
The next beginners/refreshers course is starting on Tuesday 16th April

A great way to spend a Saturday- making the zigi backpack. I love mine just in case I haven’t mentioned it😅
Well done girls they look fab and I just love the lining, enjoy your zig backpacks🙂

It’s amazing what you can learn in just four weeks!
Look at these wonderful lined tote bags and cushion with zips in, all learnt, the proper way to sew in just four weeks, well done girls🙂
If you would like to learn or just need a refresher course then get in touch, I have space on my beginners/refresher course starting next Wednesday.

Such a fun day today making Membo the elephant in the sewing room.
They are all my favourites, all so different in colour ways.
Well done girls, I am sure you will give them a good home🙂

I wouldn’t argue with these two, would you?😳
Just a couple of the baker boy hats made in the sewing room this afternoon, both made from blue wool - this should keep these two warm

It’s good to sew but even better when you make something you will always use. A tailors ham, I wouldn’t be without mine, such a fab piece of equipment for us sewers.
Hope you are having a great weekend too!

January can be a long dark month, so get your sewing machine out and have some “me time” make something that will put a smile on your face 🙂
For all past and present students - sewing is fun but it is even better with like minded people.
I am offering a couple of sew socials with one this Monday 15th January and one on Monday 28th January 7pm to 9pm. Start your week with some sewing, I am sure it would make your week ahead go well! I have just a couple of spaces left so don’t delay book today🧵🪡

Wishing you a very happy new year, may your bobbin always be full in the year ahead.
Make time to be creative this year, it’s good for your soul. It doesn’t matter what sewing machine you have, if it works, use it!
Take a look at my website - lots of different classes on the calendar with more to be added 🙂

The last workshop of 2023,
just look at these wonderful kimonos made in class today, there were more but Xmas presents so kept secret at the moment 🤫
Such a great day. Well done everybody, you did really well 🙂

With the festive season fast approaching, what better way to spend a Saturday morning - making your very own Dennis Santa doorstop. These will be perfect in their cozy homes this Christmas. Well done girls, you did a fab job, and we put the world to rights in the process🙂

Another fun day in the sewing room making aprons this morning, they all look ready to cook the Christmas dinner now!😳

Another fun Saturday in the sewing room making these weekend bags - let the travels begin. I wonder where these bags will travel to🤔
Enjoy your bags ladies and your travels🙂

Another successful day in the sewing room today. I only took a photo of the outside and forgot about the beautiful linings used on the inside.
During the day we were talking about what these could be used for, there were so many ideas that I lost count!
Enjoy your cuboids girls🙂
