General workshop info

 

You can join one of my regular monthly groups or book one-to-one/small group sessions.

The Unique Couture tuition programme also has specialist 2, 3 and 5 day courses throughout the year and I am please to be able to offer you workshops in conjunction with Ruth Brown from Stone Creek Silk where we give you the opportunity take white fabric to a dyed and printed unique garment.

Group sessions are for all sewing abilities.  You will work on a project that meets your skill level and aims.  The maximum number of students is usually 7 to ensure you and I get the most from the day.  You can come for a full week day or Saturday, for an evening session or half day.  Dates and times can be found on the regular groups page.

One-to-one/small group sessions are tailored to your exact requirements and can be a one-off for series of sessions.

You are welcome to bring your own machines and equipment to the workshops although I do have these for use if this is not convenient. 

I also have a range of haberdashery, patterns and some fabrics which can be purchased.

Refreshments are included in the price but, to keep the cost to you as reasonable as I can, lunch is not included. For sessions at Skidby it is advisable to bring lunch with you.

All venues have parking, disabled access and kitchen facilities.

I am able to come to you at home or at an alternative venue if you find travelling to Skidby for one-to-one/small group tuition a problem.
