Sewing Classes

In Horbury, West Yorkshire

We cater to all levels, from beginners to advanced sewists. Guided by our experienced & passionate lead instructor, Sam (Frugalisama on YouTube)

  • Beginner classes are for anyone new to sewing who would like to learn the basics. Also, great for anyone returning to sewing after a break, needing a refresher.

  • I’ve created the Beginners+ category because I know that many people don’t see themselves as an intermediate sewer. These classes are for people who can thread up a sewing machine but haven’t yet ventured into dressmaking. Perhaps you have done a bit of patchwork or crafting projects but not yet confident to follow a pattern, or it’s been a long time since you have sewn but need some guidance.

  • Intermediate classes are for those who are already familair with threading up a sewing machine & have a couple of projects under their belts & ready to tackle more complex projects

  • Advanced classes are for those wanting to challenge themselves & learn more about pattern drafting, fit & some more involved sewing techniques. Think tailored jackets, jeans and couture techniques

Sustainable & Affordable

There has never been a better time to learn to sew. With some basic skills, you can get designer clothes at affordable prices & you get to choose the colour, design, fit & fabric to suit your taste.

I have been making YouTube videos since April 2020 (@Frugalisama), demonstrating how to sew on a budget, using free patterns, with tons of ideas for upcycling, mending & caring for handmade clothes.

Here's just a small selection of some of the upcycle projects I've done.
