Sewing Circle Workshop
Description
Are you a hobby / beginner / intermediate sewist with more enthusiasm than expertise?
Do you have a sewing project you're struggling to finish at home & need a little help?
Want to get to grips with your sewing machine & learn how to use it better?
Fancy some kid-free, relaxing creativity in a beautiful art studio with like-minded people?
Tired of all these questions?
Join our NEW SEWING CIRCLE every fortnight on a Sunday afternoon:
- BYO sewing project, pattern, sewing machine, fabric, tools & enthusiasm (don't forget your pedal & power cord, instruction manual is also handy)
- we supply basics: cutting shears, snips, some thread, pins, iron & ironing board
- Our fabulous sewing teacher Penelope of Penelope Red Designs will be present to help with all your sewing questions (I've got so many!)
- 3 machines available for hire @ $15 per session
- 2.5 hrs but you are welcome to arrive 10-15min early to set up your machine
- Beginners are welcome but participants must know how to thread their machine and have some sewing experience so they can work on their project independently
- For ages 15+ & such a perfect Parent & Child activity!

Little Ginger Studio is a Children’s Art Space focused on exploring big, messy creativity with kids of all ages. Our new Randwick studio opened in January - come see what we're making!
We offer process art classes for littlies as well as drop off preschool art classes. For Primary we have exciting after school classes, full day care on the school holidays, birthday parties and even a drop in Kids Creative Club on Saturday mornings. We also run after school programs at Maroubra Junction PS and Randwick PS.
At Little Ginger Studio we love nothing better than exploring new materials, turning recyclables into Art & making a bit of a mess along the way. (Use your Creative Kids voucher with us and save $100!)
