Just wanted to say thank you very much for the lovely plum loop backed French terry which arrived today. It's gorgeous. The quality of your fabrics is always beautiful and the delivery was really quick.
Thank you so much.

Just wanted to say receive my fabric today. It’s beautiful & very lovely packaged. So thank you very much.

Norma - Online Order

Sarah was very patient when teaching the class - making sure to explain everything while demonstrating and repeating advice again if we weren't sure.

I definitely recommend visiting if you're a complete beginner or just wanting to renew some past knowledge.

Natasha Hings - Attendee of Start As You Mean To Sew On

I bought my sewing machine a couple of years ago and had no idea of how to use it.

Since then I have been on lots of classes at Crafty Sew & So, I love coming to the workshops to learn new skills and would recommend anyone to come along to a class.

About Crafty Sew & So

Freya and Sarah met in 2014 and began discussing their dreams of opening a workshop space and haberdashery shop. We opened Crafty Sew & So in 2015, to bring you a range of exciting crafty opportunities and a beautiful range of sewing equipment and hand selected dressmaking fabrics.

Crafty Sew & So aims to inspire everyone to pick up a new hobby or develop their skills in an old one. We offer workshops in a wide range of crafts and we are excited to bring you new and exciting products.
