Excellent course and absolutely fit for an absolute beginner. The only consideration is that due to the location stairs are unavoidable for people with mobility issues. I started each of the three lessons feeling like the sewing project was impossible and left each lesson amazed at what I'd accomplished. Arlie our instructor was patient and generous with her time, attention and expertise and class size of six means we could work through the projects at our own pace without fear of getting lost or mistakes. This is a tried and tested course based on my experience with everything from the lesson plan to the times, to the materials, to the instructor all coming together to meet and exceed an excellence threshold.

A really great foundational course. I had never used a sewing machine before, but everything was explained really clearly! Would highly recommend for anyone looking to start learning to sew.

Excellent class that demystified measurement and sizing. So many ah-ha moments with Danielle unpacking why we're struggling to get the perfect fit. Highly recommend this class for anyone wanting to make clothes that work for you, not the random sizing on patterns.

Terms & Conditions

Taking part in a workshop at Thread Den is fun and we love teaching people our craft, but here we have to get serious for a moment:

It is your responsibility to clear your diary for the booking you've made - especially if there are multiple sessions in your course. If you want to finish your project(s), you need to attend all workshops. You'll also need to arrive on time. We can't start again because it just isn't fair to your fellow participants. 

Allow us this indulgence for a second, our workshops and courses - are usually sold out weeks in advance. It isn't a quick switch to pop you into another workshop. If we have an appropriate session where you can attend to keep going, we will try to offer you a discounted space. If that isn't possible, you will need to book a private lesson to stay on track (the minimum cost is NM -$144 or M -$119.52). 

We also won't follow you up to check that you are coming along to class and/or that you have the right supplies for your class. Almost every workshop will require you to bring along your supplies, for some workshops we sell a supplies kit at an additional cost - but not for all. If you are unsure about what you need, just shoot us an email - info@threadden.com .  We also want you to learn and love what you make as much as possible, please carefully consider the fabrics we recommend that you use. If you choose a fabric that is suited to a more advanced level you aren't going to enjoy your experience.

We've tried to answer any questions you could have in the workshop description, but again, don't hesitate to email us for any further details or with any queries. We loooove to see that fabric you are thinking of using and sending you off to some of our favourite fabric and habby suppliers. 


Thanks for sticking with us and reading through those annoying details. 

The details of our refund policy appear during the booking process.


Medical Events

  • If you are required to isolate, with the supply of a medical certificate or COVID-19 testing referral covering the date of your workshop, you will be able to transfer your booking without incurring any penalties.
  • Your safety is our priority, we reserve the right to make decisions if necessary to preserve the safety of all. 
  • In the event of a medical emergency, we may have to seek ambulance services on your behalf and at your expense.

  • We reserve the right to cancel any scheduled course.
