Are you ready?
ABSOLUTELY, NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED!!
Overwhelmed by lack of time and the Sewing Learning Curve?
Feel like you need to be a sewing expert to create something simple? Simply not true!
What is someone keen to learn sewing skills (like you!) to do? I believe it’s best to start with a basic course, breaking down the learning curve into manageable steps. You’ll be surprised at what you can create with the foundational skills!
Yes, the internet offers snippets and the chance to cobble together your own learning agenda.
That can be helpful but is there an easier solution for you?
Rather than struggling alone what if you were able to follow a structured path to sewing success and be part of a community on the same journey?
LEARN TO SEW AT YOUR OWN PACE WITH A COMMUNITY OF LIKE-MINDED PEOPLE IS BETTER THAN FIGURING OUT THE CONFUSION ALONE!
This Course also includes the $7 Three Day Workshop / Beginners Course
THIS CLASS IS FOR YOU IF YOU WANT TO ADD TO YOUR BASIC SEWING SKILLS TO MAKE, MEND, ALTER AND REDUCE LANDFILL!
By the end of this course, you will understand how to use your machine confidently and competently to sew simple projects.
It is so exciting! Your sewing world will start to unfold, and you will be ready to learn more complicated sewing techniques!

ALLOWING 3 WEEKS TO WORK AT YOUR OWN PACE TO LEARN:
Do you love textiles? Have you always wanted to learn how to sew? Do you wish that you could whip up something on your machine but don’t even know where to start?
When you join the Beginners Guide to Sustainable Sewing Skills and Fabric Know-How you will have all the tutorials you need to get started!
Your Machine
Get ready to sew first with tips on making the most of your sewing, cutting out and pressing space.
Discover more about your miracle machine and accessories so that you feel confident in making machine setting choices.
Sewing with straight stitch and zigzag sets you up to sew your first small item!
Remember – there is nothing common about the common straight stitch!
Community and Sustainability
We are a community of likeminded makers, dedicated to a cause – come and join us and share your struggles and wins. We love to help.
Work towards the foundations of creating a sustainable wardrobe and learn along the way.
It takes time but together we share ideas, help each other and our planet.
Fabric
Fabric is where change happens!
Innovation is often in the new fabrics being developed. Keep learning and testing how to handle different fabrics and learn from your experiences and others. It’s rewarding, not frustrating.
Our fabric choices are what make the most difference to our planet and garment landfill. We can make a difference.
Portfolio of creativity
If you started work on your portfolio in the Beginners Sewing Steps workshop keep adding to it! If not, now’s a good time to set up that portfolio of samples that work and sample you learn from 🙂
A file with trials and errors as well as success and beauty is a valuable creation in itself! It’s easy to forget when you are trialing different accessories, settings, and fabrics. Keeping a portfolio of notes helps!
This is a valuable resource you will create for yourself.
You don’t need years of training or special qualifications to become proficient at sewing in 30 days or less.
What I will teach you, step by step:
• More machine mastery
• Community connection
• Build on your sewing portfolio
• How to handle different fabrics. Confidence with choosing needle, fabric and thread (it’s so easy to get this wrong!)
All in under three weeks or at your own pace if you choose. Plus a vision of what the next steps could be!
Sustainability and sewing for a cause.
The heart of why we do this.
Come and join us.
I am currently working on the next sewing project that will introduce you to PDF patterns. Nothing big, a pattern you can print at home with a project you will manage easily with the skills you have learnt here 🙂
It’s fun and useful and can be made in a variety of fabrics from velvet to a leather look fabric, simple cotton or luxurious silk!

FAQ’s
FAQ’s
When does enrolment for the course open and when does it start?
This course is online and ready to go when you are!
What if I don’t have my own sewing machine and equipment?
You will need a machine, sewing tools and fabrics. If you are not sure whether this hobby and cause are for you, try and borrow a machine and get to know more about this new skill.
Start with the bare minimum of tools. You don’t need much, but if it turns out you love the world of sewing there is so much available out there to invest in for your creativity if you choose to! We will have a webinar where we can discuss this more!
Do I need to be able to sew to enrol in this course?
No, you do not need to have any experience of the sewing world!
Is there a deadline to complete each section?
No! Once you have purchased the course you have permanent access to it. You can watch the videos as many times as you like 😊
How much time each week should I allocate to the course?
Time is often a problem with busy careers, Mum’s and a myriad of other things that require our attention.
If possible, I would recommend spending a few hours a week dedicated to your sewing course. Practice makes perfect, but perfection is not our goal! Enjoyment is!
Even setting aside 15 minute chunks a day will help you move the needle forward 😊
Experiment with sewing routines that work for you. Find a spot to set up your machine permanently so you can pick up where you left off easily.
Is there a money back guarantee?
Yes! If you purchase the $37 course and are not happy with it we offer 100% money back guarantee.
If after 3 weeks from the purchase date you are not happy, please contact me and I will reimburse the full amount.
