The Sew Much Fun Studio is as needle arts club.
Imagine a gym or internet cafe environment, but instead, in a needle arts club you find all kinds of sewing machines, cutting tables, fabrics, rulers, triangles, curves, patterns and books. We offer a supportive learning environment for creatives, allowing our attendees to keep growing in their skills and confidence.
We are specialists in the edutainment field, offering up-to-date info & current high-quality content. We are affiliated with German Fashion magazine publisher BURDA, and our course conveners are all Burda certified or holders of diplomas and degrees in design or fashion. We therefor are able to offer a great learning environment with state-of-the art support materials, video tutorials and sew much more.
We are not a tertiary education facility. As such, we are able to offer this very exclusive format of teaching where you are one of only 4-8 people attending a course. As we are not offering a qualification, we have no formal application process for any of our courses - we welcome everyone as our courses are not NQF rated. We do however suggest that members attending our courses are able to read and write English at minimum Grade 11 equivalent and for attendance of a pattern making course, a good level of mathematical literacy is highly recommended.
