A Lovely Place to Sew
I’m a bit in love with our West Wales sewing studio.
And I know I’m kind of biased so here’s some things that previous students have loved about the it…
-
it’s a bright, airy space
-
the high cutting tables (goodbye sore backs!)
-
long individual working benches, which bring a whole new meaning to personal space – no knocking elbows around this studio!
-
a shared overlocker, which is always threaded
And really the best part about coming to our dedicated dressmaking studio is that everything is on hand; from endless cups of tea to a fully stocked haberdashery. Everything you need to get you through your project is here.
Still don’t believe me? Here’s some direct quotes…
