Founder
ABOUT US
The Sew Much Fun Studio was founded in 2012 as a place to slow down, work with your hands, and reconnect with creativity in a meaningful way.
We are a private needle arts atelier and creative club, offering carefully curated making experiences for adults who value quality, focus, and time spent doing something real.
In a world that feels increasingly fast, abstract, and disconnected, we believe that making things by hand matters. Sewing is not just a skill , it’s a way to think, to process, and to feel grounded. For many people, it becomes therapy in disguise: quiet, absorbing, and deeply satisfying.
Our Way of Working
We are not a school or an academy.There are no exams, certificates, or formal structures to navigate.
Instead, we offer immersive, small-group experiences where people learn by doing, at their own pace, in a calm and well-equipped studio. The emphasis is on process, attention, and craftsmanship - not rushing, not proving, not performing.
This is a space for serious hobbying: for people who are curious, committed, and interested in developing real skills without pressure or pretence.
What You’ll Find Here
The studio is designed as a welcoming, focused environment where people can make, experiment, and connect. You’ll find professional tools, thoughtful guidance, and a club-like atmosphere that encourages concentration as well as conversation.
Our experiences range from beginner-friendly making sessions to more advanced garment-focused pathways, alongside SewAlongs, studio access, and special workshops. Everything is shaped to feel practical, absorbing, and genuinely rewarding.
We also encourage a more considered relationship with clothing and textiles - valuing repair, longevity, and things made with care over speed and disposability.
