  • 5/5 from Amanda Rutherford, attended Nov 2025: Amy was a fabulous teacher - very patient and knowledgeable and creative. Had a wonderful time learning lots of new stitches and finding out about threads and moss and all things embroidery
  • 5/5 from Sharron Stewart, attended Nov 2025: Fabulous day as usual. The Class I attended was Forest Moss it was fantastic!! Our Teacher Amy was so helpful and I learnt a lot. I always wanted to do this art embroidery but didn’t know how to go about it and she showed us in easy and doable stages. Would highly recommend this class to Beginners through to Advanced.
  • 5/5 from Kerry Thornley, attended Dec 2024: Amy was a great guide showing us the main stitches and more depending on what you liked to do. Venue was setup giving a relaxed and creative vibe. I would go back for another class.
  • 5/5 from Christibe Sheeley, attended Dec 2024: Amy was such a great teacher. I learnt some funky new stitches and had lots of opportunity to practice them. Such a creative and flexible teacher- and lovely resources. Thank you
  • 5/5 from Jeanne Chan, attended Dec 2024: Amy is a generous teacher always keen to teach you a new technique or help you if you’re not quite getting that stitch! She’s warm, inspiring and incredibly skilled and talented. Everything I needed for the class was provided in a beautiful little box plus other shared items to add even more texture and interest. Amy has a background in teaching so her demonstration and guidance is clear and easy to understand. With such encouragement and support, I was completely immersed in this beautiful topographical mossy landscape I was working on. Amy encouraged us to be as intuitive as possible which meant that every persons work was so different and uniquely beautiful. I loved every minute and the hours flew by! I’m going to do a bit everyday and I know it won’t be long before my missy landscape is finished.

Made by Me Workshop is about helping people to connect with their "inner creative" and have some fun while making beautiful things from quality materials in our friendly & vibrant studio space in the heart of the inner west!
Established in 2017 after Rebecca Doyle decided to take a career break and chose to revisit her childhood love for arts & crafts. Rebecca grew up in a large family where money was tight, after school activities where mostly homegrown and usually involved a sheet of cardboard, a glue stick and some glitter! It is probably no surprise to learn that Rebecca followed a creative path to study Fashion & Textile Design at University!
After a few more decades (than Rebecca will publicly admit to) and a long and varied career in the fashion industry, Rebecca wanted to get back to creating beautiful, one-of-a-kind objects - Made By Me Workshop is the result of where this path led.
Rebecca loves that moment of pride that comes over each participant's face when they look at what they have created and say to themselves "Wow - I made this & I love it!"
Made by Me Workshop run a variety of creative workshops, hen’s parties, private parties and corporate events from their warehouse space in St Peters including Resin Art, Resin Jewellery & Mould Making, Soap Making, Terrazzo Homewares, Punch Needle, Macrame and many more.
