Introduction to Sewing with Stretch Fabrics - 21st November 2026

Does sewing with jersey or knit fabrics scare you? Our Sewing with Stretch Workshop is aimed at dispelling all the myths and horror stories surrounding sewing with stretchy fabrics. Once you know how to work with this fabric you will love whipping up a quick and easy sweatshirt or t-shirt. 

During this workshop you will learn the techniques you need to master sewing with different types of stretch fabrics, including different stitches and needle types, and will make your own Bo Sweatshirt, designed by your tutor Sharlene. 

Supplies: You will need to bring your own prewashed fabric (french terry and ribbing), sewing machine and tools (scissors, pins, etc). If you need to borrow a sewing machine please let us know. The pattern and instructions will be included in the price of the workshop. 

We will provide *tea/coffee & treats.

If you have any dietary requirements or further questions please get in touch.

LEVEL: This workshop is for all levels of sewists, from beginners to experienced (as long as you can use a sewing machine).
