SEWCIAL SEWING - CLAIRE'S SEWCIAL SEWING

Welcome to Sewcial Sewing™

Sewcial Sewing™ is based in Barnsley providing sewing classes, fabric and haberdashery in Penistone, South Yorkshire.

Have you always wanted to learn to sew, want to improve your skills or to just meet like-minded people who love sewing? Then you have come to the right place. Sewcial Sewing™ started in 2016 drawing on my 40 plus years sewing experience. My classes include techniques in:

• Dressmaking
• Home furnishings
• Patchwork
• Quilting
• Bag Making
• Lingerie and Corsets

With sewing no longer on the school curriculum, my aim is to bring sewing back to being something anyone can learn and to make it social and happy. I have been lucky in securing a couple of grants and with this money three sewing machines and an overlocker have been purchased. The sewing machines have been bought and are owned by Penistone Round Table and I am their guardian for the community. These machines are for use by anyone and can be loaned for free. The overlocker has been a great addition to my classes and my students love the chance to try it out without having to pay the price for one.

My regular classes are on a Tuesday night at St John’s Community Centre, Penistone, Barnsley and twice a month on Thursday at Penistone Leisure Centre.
