A Sewing School for
all ages & skill levels-
please see news below
-based in Orpington, Bromley, SE London
I had my first lesson with Caroline this morning on how to use an overlocker, I was made very welcome and thoroughly enjoyed my time with her, I have learnt so much in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, I was confident when I came home to practise my new skills, with success, on my own overlocker. I look forward to having future lessons with her to develop my sewing skills further.
