This is the first time I've used this website and will be back again. Very prompt delivery, plus a beautifully wrapped parcel of fabric. The finishing touch of a handwritten card with each fabric saying what it is and the care instructions are a fantastic addition. Thank you very much.

Happy online customer

Been to a fantastic dress making class today! Having never made clothes before I was a bit unsure how I would get on. Nothing to worry about.

From being shown how to correctly cut a pattern out to sewing together , I made a pinafore dress, completed and ready to wear tomorrow! I highly recommend this shop for classes, looking forward to my next class.

Maria Mercer - Attendee of Dressmaking Workshop

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 at a sewing workshop in 2014 and they discussed their dreams of opening a workshop space and haberdashery shop. In September 2015, they joined forces to open Crafty Sew & So to bring you a range of exciting crafty opportunities and a beautiful range of sewing equipment and fabrics.

Crafty Sew & So aims to inspire everyone who walks through the door 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.
