What’s it all about?

Calling all sewers! And all of you who have never touched a needle and thread but are inspired by Heather's sweet beginner sewing project - the Japanese pin cushion!

Using beautiful patterned and coloured Japanese fabrics and a sake cup, you'll be making a high reward/low effort pin cushion! Perfect for keeping all those needles at their sharpest for your future sewing escapades.

This class is suitable for absolute beginners. You will receive all instructions and materials you need to make your own cute pin cushion, while having fun in the process.
