The pleasant findings from our online workshops:

6 September 2020 by Danielle Leave a Comment

As we run more an more online workshops and private lessons, we are finding that there a lot of pleasant advantages to this delivery mode and we wanted to share them with you.

You can learn in the comfort of your own home, we’ve had students snuggled up on the couch, professionally setup at their work from home desks, cleverly tucked away in their crafting corner or bolstered by pillows in their comfy beds! 

Tardiness is avoided because you don’t have to plan your public transport trip, or juggle travel time and parking, then finding the venue. It’s never been easier to avoid being late to class.

While we’re all further apart, this delivery method means we’ve never been closer! By using multiple cameras you get to see what your teacher is doing in different ways. See your teacher like she’s at your kitchen table, or view what she’s doing as if you were peering right over their shoulder.  

You can access new support, you still have your detailed handouts and we’re adding more video references on YouTube. During class we can share more references during discussions.

With our teacher and host model for workshops it’s focused and allows you to engage with teachers and the other participants. We have a host who liaises throughout the class via the chat, relaying questions without interrupting the teacher’s audio.

New Online Workshops

22 July 2020 by Danielle Leave a Comment

We have started offering online workshops! This week we added a whole new class to our line up – How to Use Your Sewing Machine.

We know that people often buy machines but things don’t go to plan and sometimes that shiny new machines doesn’t make it out of the box. Or, those bird’s nest threads underneath your fabric and other things that go wrong were just too much frustration – we get it and we’re here to help.  This newest workshop is a 2 hour workshop to give you the confidence to start to play around on your new sewing machine.

Check out this new workshop and our other online classes – click here.
