Ever watched someone on TikTok make the cutest quilt and thought, “I wish I could do that”? This is your sign to finally give it a go!
In this fun and relaxed workshop, you’ll learn the absolute basics of sewing and patchwork—no experience needed. Together we’ll cover how to use a sewing machine, sew straight seams, and piece your own fabric design into something beautiful.
You will learn:
  • How to thread and operate a sewing machine
  • Rotary cutting and safe fabric handling
  • How to plan, piece, and press your patchwork
  • How to start your next project at home
You’ll get to choose your own small beginner project: a patchwork cushion cover, a quilt sampler block or a mini wall hanging.
Manja will walk you through every step at your pace, with plenty of one-on-one support. By the end, you’ll have a finished (or nearly finished) piece and the confidence to keep stitching on your own.
What you'll get
  • Expert guidance
  • Finished (or nearly finished) patchwork piece
Knowledge required
None!
What to bring
Fabric for your project (you’ll receive a detailed guide before class) or let me know your colour palette or vibe (we can provide fabric for an extra $25).
