My daughter’s favorite thing to do, is to walk into our studio and go straight to the off-cuts corner and see what fabric pieces she can find. She is obsessed with finding fabrics for dresses and happy to wait around for multiple hours until I have sewn up something for her.
Kids clothing is a great way to re-purpose smaller fabric pieces.
Have you got little kids at home and lots of fabric pieces that are too small for an adult garment? Come join our Project Help Class and we can assist you in creating something for your little one.

These are our “Project Help Class” time slots:

Tuesday’s & Thursday’s 10am-12pm
Tuesday’s: 18:00-20:00pm
Saturday’s: 13:30-15:30pm

Book a bulk package or single classes.
R375/hour or R2400 for 4x 2 hour sessions.

We have machines available for use. All you need to bring along is your project idea. Or chat to us about a project idea for your class.

This is David, who recently completed our Intermediate and Advanced sewing courses 👏
Here he is proudly showing off the waistcoat he made during the Advanced course. He created his own textile by patchworking together a variety of offcuts.
How fun are these pattern and colour combinations? 🤩
Such a creative way to use up fabric scraps and make the sewing process more sustainable.
