What Intensive Turbo is (and isn’t):
The Intensive Turbo course is a structured, accelerated programme focused on industry-level garment construction. It is designed to help attendees understand the sequence, standards, and decision-making behind making clothing properly, similar to a focused, practical “tertiary-style” learning experience, without any unnecessary fluff.
This course does not include business-startup training. We do not teach marketing, business strategy, accounting, business plans, funding, or launch support. The purpose is to give you the technical competence and production understanding that becomes the foundation for any serious pathway, whether you plan to sew yourself, work with a CMT, or eventually earn an income in the clothing space.

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.
