6 session bundle

Make Mee Studio

Join us for our weekly relaxed sewing and mending sessions where you can get stuck into your own projects alongside fellow makers/potential besties. 

At our socials, you can:

- Enjoy using our fully-equipped sewing studio complete with large tables, sewing machines, overlockers and every tool you’ll need
- Bring along any torn or *yawn* boring clothing to mend and upcycle (we’ll help you!)
- Chat to fellow makers, make creative friends and become part of a sewing community 
- Turn to our experienced sewing teachers for aesthetic advice and sewing technique top tips
- Refer to our collection of books, guides and patterns for ideas and how-tos
- Buy low-cost material from our studio
- Unwind and have fun in a no-pressure environment
- Best of all, be messy and not worry about tidying up!

**Before you book**
While our teachers will be available to support you, our Sewcials are designed to create space for laid-back independent sewing and peer-to-peer learning.  
If you’re a complete sewing newbie, check out our Learn to Sew or Casual Basics course. 

Our books and references can only be used in-studio. If you’d like to use them for a longer period of time, we recommend booking a bundle of classes. 

Not a sewer? No problem! Bring along your knitting, crochet, weaving, macrame or other crafting project. Our expert sewing teachers may not be able to support you to the same extent but we’re sure you’ll love the extra space, new pals and the freedom to be messy!  

We have free spots available for those who can’t pay the ticket price right now. If you can afford to and want to spread the love, consider buying a “pay it forward” ticket to support a fellow maker.

The Sewcial

Ann Thompson

Good fun at the Sewcial session, very helpful being able to use the sewing machines and meet other people working on their own different projects.

Rosie Hattersley

Super session with lots of useful advice on the project I brought along, and stop me from messing up something I thought I'd mastered but wasn't quite confident about. You can either bring along everything you need and make use of the fact there's plenty of space to work, or borrow equipment from the Make Mee studio. Although this isn't a taught class, it's fine to ask questions and check with them about stuff. The really friendly sewing instructors also always have clever fixes and ways to save on fabrics or to make better use of those I've brought along.

Erum Quddus

Loved the Sewcial! So good to be among like minded people and exchanging ideas. It was also good to be amongst people. Having support from Jaime on my sewing projects as and when I needed it means that I can actually make progress and finish things! Looking forward to the next class!  :)

Always great fun. Learn some really useful tips.

Claire Harding

Friendly and relaxed group sewing in a well-equipped studio. I'll be back!

Sara

I had a great time and learnt a lot on the course learning to sew basic casuals. There was a really friendly atmosphere and the tutors were full of knowledge, tips and tricks of the trade. The class size meant that everybody got the help when they needed it. The studio is well stocked with everything you could possibly needed to create amazing clothes. So happy I did the course and will definitely be signing up for more. 

Very friendly atmosphere. Instructors always willing to help if you are stuck on the project you are working on.
Good place to meet new people too.

Diane O’Shea

I enjoyed the session. I felt motivated working along side the other sewers. 

Clare Lorraine Phipps

These sessions are incredible value for money. £10 for access to the Make Mee studio equipment is already great, but the real bonus is the Make Mee teachers on hand if you have any questions and offer tips and tricks. Jaime is so helpful and really makes sewing fun (great for those who had the fun drummed out at school!) - I wouldn't be able to machine sew at all without her! Also a nice airy well ventilated space perfect for covid times, and the team wear masks so everyone feels safe to sew. It's also so nice to see other visitors' projects progress every week and learn from what other people are doing. Highly recommend, it's a miracle they aren't sold out every week! 

Anna Serocold

Lovely atmosphere and helpful tips ☺️

Great class, as always! Very friendly, helpful, attentive staff. And good to be amongst other sewers. Really nice vibe in the class. Thoroughly recommend! 

Liane Alleyne

I had a fantastic time as always, I will be attending more sessions and classes. 

Sabina Plamenova

Very productive, lovely teacher and students. Hope to join again in the near future!

Anna Sgambati

Good experience and friendly I want continue 

Paulette Baker

I loved it I enjoyed my first time and the young lady Jamie was very friendly and very helpful I'm definitely going back next time 

Alice  Grahame 

I completed a tricky alteration that I had been putting off for years. The sewing teacher Josh, was extremely patient showing me how to do darts, and advising on how to get a good fit. Also the equipment was so much better than what I have at home. I was delighted to leave the session with a wearable dress. I would definitely recommend Make Mee Studio for anyone wanting to have a go at dress making. 

Louisa Barry

Loved sewing with other people! Its much more fun! And for a beginner like me its great to have Jaimie at hand for problem-solving and advice! 

natalie ashworth-binns

Georgia did a great job of helping me to sow the ilford jacket which was a bit beyond my skill level. She was really patient and friendly. I would highly recommend this course and Georgia. 

pauline pennant

Awesome ! Just what I’ve been looking for - our teacherJosh was super helpful, informative & all round pleasant - free parking right outside - a hidden gem. Will most definitely be back 

Janice George

This was my first time at an evening. Everyone was welcoming and friendly, and Josh was supportive with advice. I enjoyed the evening and plan to go again.

Sarah Kutner

My experience with Make Me Studios was amazing! Annie (the instructor) was so kind and knowledgeable. She helped me with my project and gave great suggestions! I was a bit nervous as it was my first time coming and I am not too confident in my sewing, however everyone was extremely welcoming. I will definitely be back!!  

Patricia Chong

I was so fortunate to attend a “sewcial” event while in London. Everyone was friendly and I had a great time. 

Anthony Mee

Janet Jackson

I throughly enjoyed my first Tuesday morning session. Thank you Annie for your guidance and knowledge with my fiddly projects that have been sitting at home waiting to be sorted.
Although I'm an ametuer I have forgotten how much I love the sound of the sewing machine.
I'm looking forward to my next session.
Thank you.

Tati Howell

I was a bit too daunted to start a sewing project – making a tunic for my partner – and the Sewcial was just what I needed to get it going. I booked a second one as I needed some encouragement with my new overlocker, and now the tunic is finished and has been proudly worn! 

Jasmine  Jones

It was just what I've been looking for! I was able to start using up my stash! The sewing assistants are really helpful. I'm so looking forward to the next session! 

The fact that I keep going back is proof of how much I enjoy attending. Its been a positive experience meeting people who love to sew, getting great support and advice and just having the chance to talk and share.

Karina Samuel-Burm

The person leading the sewcial is helpful and encouraging.
A variety of machines is available including an overlocker, iron and large iron board, lots of coloured thread and sewing accessories. 
People are friendly and make an effort to make it social by having small conversations while working on their individual projects.  I look forward to going again.

My only recommendation would be that the tables and some equipment could do with cleaning before the sessions start. 



I really enjoy the atmosphere, and the support!

bethany  simpkin

Helpful and creative, make mee helped me with ideas and execution of a design for a bag for my business.  They have so many nifty gadgets and an abundance of materials and knowledge! Huge recommend 

Rachel McVeagh

I took the two week course on creating a trouser toile and thoroughly recommend it - it's a really friendly atmosphere, the studio is well stocked and Josh is a great teacher.

I am sp glad I found this! I love the atmosphere and Jaime and Josh are really welcoming and always help when I need some advice. 


Sorry not been around for awhile but hopefully will be back soon!!

Poonam Roberts

I found it a useful session.
People with a common interest are there to complete their own work in progress. 
Advice is constructive and resources are available.

I love to sew and I love to chat too! Sewcial at make mee studio provides a great space to start a new project or finally finish that UFO, all in the company of other likeminded creatives and great facilitaters who help and guide you with your chosen project when needed. 

Amy Foxton

Friendly sewing group and space right next to Crofton Park station. Great if you need two hours with a sewing machine to focus on a project

Lara Platt

Lots of informative teaching and progress with Josh 

Melissa Bond

Friendly welcome and lovely supportive atmosphere 

janet020@hotmail.co.uk

I love being able to go along to these classes, especially as its on my doorstep and I can walk within  10 minutes. It helps with my well-being and the feeling of isolation. I love sewing although I am far from being an expert but I am learning with the patience and expertise of Jamiee and Annie. Its also lovely to meet new people who attend the class. Thank you. Janet 

Diane Denham

This Sewcial session was wonderful - I thoroughly enjoyed it. Annie was wonderful - really supportive. 

Carol Davis

Friendly atmosphere with great help in hand. 

A friendly and welcoming space to sew with excellent advice on hand when needed

Fatema Jahan

Spent a great 2 hours with other sewists at the Sewcial. Was helped by the lovely tutor & assistant to pin 2 shirts, and they gave advice and demo to make the alterations for a better fit.  I learned some new things, had a nice time, in a pleasant atmosphere with others working  on their sewing projects.

Suzanne Thomas

I turned up not even knowing how to unpick a stitch and left having had a go on a sewing machine! Amazingly helpful staff there, massively patient with my total incompetance, 100% going back! Their knowledge is amazing, so much more to learn. Thanks guys! 

elwira mroczko

Loved the session and will attend again. It was lovely meeting everyone and teachers and volunteers were great

What a lovely place to learn to sew! The teachers are friendly and helpful. A great way to spend a Thursday evening.

Elaine Bracken

Just done my third visit to sewcial.  Lovely relaxed atmosphere.  I get so much done when I come!

Absolutely lovely set up, really helpful guidance from Kate. I was grateful to have someone to help me remember the basics while I altered some trousers I shrank!

Ronnie Dehaney

I had a wonderful time attending my first sewcial and look forward to attending many more. It's the perfect place to gain confidence in your sewing style, while being encouraged by other attendees and teachers. 

Love the atmosphere! Calm, peaceful, a haven away from the hustle and bustle of life where everyone works at their own place, with lots of help when needed. Love it!

Silvia  Fernandez

Another great morning of theraputic creativity, away from the busyness of life! Love it! Thank you for such a provision

Selina Latour

I loved my experience in the studio - such a nice space to work in and lovely folk to talk about sewing with! 

Julia Fraundorfer

I have been to the Sewcial twice not and it's great! It's a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere and I received so much help with my projects. In 2 session I managed to alter 2 dresses to make them fit better and they look really nice now. Thank you for all the help!

Silvia Fernandez

I am so grateful to have found Make Mee Studio!  I am loving learning and enjoying the camaraderie when I go there.  Thanks!

Emily Bishop

It was my first session and it was a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere with everyone working at their own pace and you were able to ask for help or advice if needed. Once I remembered how to use a sewing machine, the two hours flew by! 

Hazel Rodgers

I recently learnt to use a sewing machine, but am not yet confident enough to go it alone. The Sewcial is absolutely brilliant. They have everything you need (machines, tools, fabrics, threads, etc) and there are a couple of staff members to chat with, discuss ideas and, crucially for me, help with problems with using the machine or working out how to do something. I WILL master zips!!! 😂 Couldn’t recommend Make Me Studio more highly. I’m hooked! 

Love the vibe of the group and the tutor is always so welcoming and encouraging.  Had a great time as always

I had a great time in the studio: I learnt, made friends and a dress!

Anella Vokes

The sewcial is a wonderful space! Everyone is incredibly friendly, welcoming and helpful! I will be back as much as I can! Its a great way to spend an evening :)

Penelope Grossi

Well equiped studio with plenty of natural light. Knowlegeable staff ready to give you a hand. Handy for the bus and train. Friendly sewers. You can purchase materials too! What's not to love! For me it's a chance to dedicate some time to sewing and have a chat with other creative souls.

maxine wallace

This newbie found this group,  randomly popped up on my Facebook feed and was curious.  As I am local thought why not pop along to see they use the library.  I am so glad I did.  Each person has their own machine, layout considering it's in the library was surprisingly really good.  Tutor  was on hand to offer support, advice with a volunteer on hand to help.  As the advert says you work at your pace.  First impression very encouraging, so much so booked to attend the following week session before I left with my task of  "SEW IT" just about to start,  only one issue i'm double booked :(.   This  newbie is encouraged that I will achieve my goal.  Thank you everyone for making me feel so welcomed.  Back to the homework.  Only given  3 stars as I wasn't their long but I have a feeling this be upgraded next week if I can make it.

I rediscovered my love for sewing at Make Me Studio!

Sue Hiscock

I'm so pleased I found this little gem.  Lots of help is offered and I've met some lovely people. I've only been a couple of times but have learnt so much and managed to alter a dress, make a drawstring bag and finally got to use an electric sewing machine.  Watch out 'Sewing Bee'  programme , you might have a new contestant next season!

Lara Ophelia Diana Platt

Lovely atmosphere, helpful teacher, fully equipped, a nice bit of sewing bliss for a Thursday evening.

Carole  Morrison 

I enjoy attending the classes.  The staff ere excellent and on hand to help. 

Like it very relaxed and I am able to explore my ideas.

Jessica Ann  Veno

I love working in a project and sharing experiences with fellow sewers and instructor!

Another great morning at the Make Mee Studio! Thank you for creating such a warm, welcoming happy space for all to pursue their sewing and crafting passion. Great facilities and excellent teacher. Can't wait to sign up for the next one!

Just great, guidance and resources and catering to all levels.

Great place to learn, and be creative. Lovely  friendly staff 😊

Sonya Cardwell

I attended sewsical as paying customer and was threatened to be hit by some of their community non paying people because i accidentially slightly touched her bun which was sticking and blocking a small space to my seat. The tutor heard it and denied it and it was put down to my 'perception'.  It is sold as community event but i have been there a few years and never seen any paying customer return there except me as a mug.  It is not a community event it is a place where some people go for free and others pay.  There is no chatter. There are too many crammed into the space. there are some brilliant free to all places to go to with actual community feel.   Have no problem paying but not for that. Avoid.

I highly recommend sharing a session sewing, chatting and making new friends!

Had a useful and productive time. Jamie was very helpful and showed a number of us how to do button holes.

Love these sewing sessions. I always get so much help from Jaimie and Tracey and all my fellow sewers. What would I do without them? A lovely atmosphere and venue to gradually empty a mending box that has been growing for years.

They are a very helpful and friendly people also there to help you with your project.

Chinyere  Chukwu

Yvonne Palmer-Thomas

Everybody is always friendly and helpful. 

Jean Clarke

Staff was helpful and the atmosphere was very pleasant. Thanks for the experience.  I'll definitely be back for more sessions.  

Hannah  Clifton 

Such a lovely time sewing with the group. Annie is so patient kind and knowledgeable- such a helpful teacher when needed. 

The Sewcial on Tuesday was a great way to kick start my sewing projects for 2025. There were lots of ladies busy at the machines and a buzz of people happy to be together engaged in a shared love of sewing. Our group leader Ani was her usual helpful, encouraging self freely sharing her wealth of knowledge and expertise. Thank you for such a great start to my sewing year!

Shine Khan  Bajwa

Such a lovely class! Relaxing and informative! Jamie the organiser is very experienced and extremely welcoming. If I lived nearer I would attend regularly. This class is highly recommended for all those interested in sewing and mending. Thank you for a lovely morning!  S 

Make progress on your personal sewing and crafting projects while becoming part of a sewing community; free spots available!

They’ll get stuck into sewing, crafting and designing projects to instill a sense of confidence and pride. These sessions are open to kids of all sewing abilities, from complete newbies to confident creators. Regardless of their ability, they’ll leave with new knowledge and progress on projects appropriate to their skill level. 

This is a great extracurricular activity that will give your child transferable life skills. They’ll learn to use a sewing machine and discover loads of other craft and design techniques including: appliqué, embroidery, free machining, dressmaking, pattern cutting, and much, much more! 

**What’ll they make**

Each child will tackle a project of their choosing, individually guided by one of our friendly and experienced teachers. We have a huge range of projects on offer so they can choose to make something they will love and cherish for years to come. 

They can also choose fabric and trims available in our studio. We have everything, from regular cotton and standard buttons, to plush faux fur and sequins – a dream for imaginative young makers!   

Some of our projects include: cuddlies, bags, t-shirts, skirts, trousers, cushions the list goes on…

**Who’s it for?**

These sessions are suitable for budding sewers of all abilities, for children in year 2 and above.  Please note, we have recently had to increase the age criteria so please email if you child is 6 but in year 1. 
They can be a great help for GSCE and A-level work, and can also go towards D of E skills.

This session can also serve as a taster to see if your child would like to sign up for our After School Club or Holiday Classes. 

Please note: we cannot offer childcare over lunch time.

Children's Freestyle Sewing Saturday's

Alexandra Gimeno McMahon 

Alex loved it as always, she is always so proud of what she achieves!!! 

Fab kids lessons that give them skills for life!

Imogen George-Young

4.5 stars
She enjoyed it very much - the range of options of stuff to make & the help from Jamie. (although she had her own project to learn to finish! ) 

She's booked to come again next month. 

Alex  Gimeno Mcmahon 

Amazing as always, love fact they can create whatever pops onto their head on the day !! 

Poppy  Gleeson

My children have been enjoying sewing sessions with Jaime and Tracey at Make Mee since 2018. They love the fact they're allowed to choose projects based on their skill level but also encouraged to stretch themselves and develop new skills. The creations are amazing. Between them they have made jackets, trousers, skirts, t-shirts, shorts, bags and pencil cases. All from interesting fabrics so each piece is totally unique. We love these classes so much that since moving we now travel a 4 hour round trip to participate. 

Cecilia  Durbin 

Cecilia was very focussed.. during the different sessions she's attended so far.  and has challenged herself in making a few different items !! It is good fun for that age and the free flow works out well given the different levels and working paces. 

Grace Campbell

My two girls absolutely loved their first sewing class. They came out so excited and animated about what they’d made. It was a joy to see their faces! We’ve booked again.  Thank you so so much Tracey & Jaime. 

Esther Agbolade 

Love love all my sessions. All amazing coaches. 

Isabel Gilmore

My daughter absolutely loved her first ever session here. She’d never used a sewing machine before and came home having made a Hogwarts cushion which she was very proud of! She can’t wait to come again. Thank you!

Emma Prouvost

I love the class and making the scrunchy and the pillow. ( Emma,6) 
My daughter absolutely loves this class and has been asking over and over for more sessions.


Ariana Clarke

Super 3 hour session. Made a tote bag, hair scrunchie and pompom! 
Will definitely be going again.

Keira Waisome

I'm really pleased with my bag. Looking forward to the next session!

Iona Singleton

My daughter loves this class. I'm amazed at the stuff she comes home with - yesterday she stayed for the morning and afternoon session and came home having finished a backpack and made a pair of trousers from scratch. A really brilliant workshop.

Eloise McKeown

We love the monthly Saturday sessions, the quality of the projects that come home with the kids is always astounding.

Mary Elliott

This was the perfect first session for us both (mum and daughter) to learn to use our new sewing machine and to have guidance in our first projects. We both loved it! So pleased to have found your studio & looking forward to learning more with you. Thank you.

Lola Kamp

My daughter loved it! She came back home with her home-made skirt, quite pretty indeed. She would like to go weekly :) Excellent skills to learn, while having fun.

David Hunter

My son had a great time at the children's freestyle sewing workshop at Make Mee studio.
He had stated making a hat at home out of his own interest and needed a bit of help to sew it together properly. The tutors at Make Mee enabled him to make what he wanted. I was very impressed that they managed to give such tailored (no pun intended) support to individual students. My son was really happy with the end result and said the time passed really quickly, he was enjoying the process so much.
Thanks Make Mee studio! 

Cleide Marlene Moreira da Costa

Hi 
My name is Acacia I am 8 ,l really like sewing lesson, because it’s very fun,  I can learn how sewing, and the teachers are very nice. 

Sulihat Owoyemi

I liked the make mee studio because I got to chose what I made and did most of the work. What I disliked about it was that I did not get to really go on the machine by myself but overall it was really good.

Treat your child to a few hours of creative fun at our Freestyle Sewing sessions, held on the first Saturday of each month.
